Heads Talking The Democratic Circus Lyrics

The Democratic Circus Lyrics

Found out this morning

There's a circus coming to town

They drive in Cadillacs

Using walkie-talkies, and the Secret Service



Their big top

Imitation of life

And all the flags and microphones

We have to cover our eyes



We play the sideshows

And we like the tunnel of love

And when we ride the ferris wheel

We're little children again



And when they're asking for volunteers

We'll be the first ones aboard

And when the ringmaster calls our names

We'll be the first ones to go ... to sleep



Stealing all our dreams

Dreams for sale

They sell 'em back to you



On with the show

Start the parade

We sand along

Sweep us away



It's political party time

Going down, going down

And the celebrities all come out

Coming down, coming down, coming...



The sun is going down

And the dogs are starting to howl

We stay out after dark

Eating cotton candy

And the music's playing...



How we all laughed!

We split our sides

The cameras flashed

We almost died!



The rain's gonna pour on down, falling out of the sky

Coming down, coming down

And the celebrities all run out, and the rain's

Coming down, coming down



Gonna rain,

Gonna rain, gonna rain

Gonna rain, gonna rain,

Rain, rain

Rain, rain



And now I wonder who's boss

And who he's leavin' behind
