(Radio Edit of Track 1)

lyrics

I met this funny fellow while standing there
He wore a black coat, top hat upon his head
He told me to flee, keep wit, take care
He leapt down off his high horse and he sold me the devil’s glare

He said don’t take your time, time is no man’s treasure
These men will pick your souls for their own mere pleasure
And I cannot believe my ears
How one cruel creature can prey upon a mass’ fears

Conform, you dirty peasants
We must stand tall, when corruption is present

He told me the circus was a cruel joke
A trick, a game, a jest just to fool us poor folk
I sat up, and I sighed
Stood up, loosened my tie, and replied:
“I don’t believe my eyes
I don’t believe my ears!”
How one cruel creature can prey upon a mass’ fears

Don’t identify by your class
We care only for the goodness in a man’s heart
Oh, but they might dress smart
But he has no heart

Roll up, roll up, all you thrill seekers meet
You’re in for a test of morale, what a treat!
They might dress smart, they might speak sweet
But these cruel creatures won’t stop until they reach defeat
The circus is real

2016's 'The Circus Is Real' sees the band develop a more raucous edge - this is reflected in their stomping live show which has brought them to many festivals and venues across the UK. ... more
