CIRCUS TRICKS

 

Distractions distractions

No need to feel down

Pack up your troubles

There’s a circus in town.

 

Attractions attractions

Roll up for the fun fair

Dine on our new lady

With candy floss hair.

 

Distractions distractions

The juggler adds knives

Higher taxes, bigger cuts

Satisfy his ex wives.

 

Attractions attractions

She walks the tight rope

Balancing on the wire

Between death and hope.

 

 

Distractions distractions

Clowns plant gm seeds

In laboratory farms

More freaks they will breed.

 

Attractions attractions

The fortune teller knows

Behind the big tent action

Hide dodgy side shows.

 

Distractions distractions

The magician favourite trick

Making coins disappear

Into solid walls of bricks.

 

Attractions attractions

One thing can be certain

We’re left mystified

At the raised final curtain.
