A pack of clowns went cruising to a bar on King downtown
Their noses turning redder from the drinks they all washed down
When firemen took issue to that silly painted frown
Oh, the patrons in the bar were toasting shots to Tom Malloy
When nasty words went flying, like big foot and hose boy
The brawl that broke out was a mesh of hatred and of joy

The summer of the circus, it could not last
The summer of the circus, went by so fast
The summer of the circus, Toronto's past
The summer of the circus

It was the year of 1855, that would have been a time for us to be alive

The firemen from Orange lodge got whipped in the fight
The next day they went back for more just as you'd think they might
They pulled the circus tent down and the wagons set a-light
Oh, that second fight was more a bloody riot than before
The mayor called the army in to even up the score
The lesson here don't mess with clowns, they're lethal at their core

Woe to those who say the Toronto streets are tame
Ye clearly hadn't heard this tale of when the circus came
I'll never look at firemen or clowns quite the same
