Talking Heads - The Democratic Circus текст песни

Found out this morning

Theres 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

Were little children again

And when theyre asking for volunteers

Well be the first ones aboard

And when the ringmaster calls our names

Well 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

Its 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 musics playing...

How we all laughed!

We split our sides

The cameras flashed

We almost died!

The rains gonna pour on down, falling out of the sky

Coming down, coming down

And the celebrities all run out, and the rains

Coming down, coming down

Gonna rain,

Gonna rain, gonna rain

Gonna rain, gonna rain,

Rain, rain

Rain, rain

And now I wonder whos boss

And who hes leavin behind?
