Carnival Song

Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
The singer cries for people's lies He will sing for the day to bring him night The circus burns in carnival flame And for a while you won't know my name at all But sing and dance and love for pennies and gold The juggling clown smiles to me And every frown we agree is glad The nighttime comes to bring the bums From Bowery heat to crimson streets of wine But magic lands will never touch our sands Your children smile in single file They learn mistakes that others make They see although they cannot know The needs they'll need to have their greed grow wild But dance and sing, for others bring the shame And for a while you won't know my name
