Ani Difranco - Freakshow Lyrics

Send "Freakshow" ringtone to your cell

Life in the circus ain't easy

But the folks on the outside don't know

The tent goes up and the tent comes down

And all that they see is the show

And the ladies on the horses look so pretty

And the lions are lookin real mad

And some of the clowns are happy

And some of the clowns are sad

But underneath there's another expression

That the makeup isn't making

Life under the big top it's about freedom it's about faking

There's an art to the laughter there's a science

And there's a lot of love and compliance

Welcome to the freak show here we go

We live to hear the slack jawed gasping

We live under a halo of held breath

And when the children raise up a giant shield

Of laughter it's like they're fending off death

And we can make something bigger

Then anyone of us alone

And then the clowns will take off their makeup

And the people will go home

But life on the outside ain't easy no sequins no elephants

No parading around yeah the tent goes up

And the tent comes down

And they're stuck in this fucking town

You need a lot of love and compliance

Welcome to the freak show here we go
