[Verse]

The stage is your comforting lair

The people so small out there

Fear of laughter and spots

In the light, in your leotard


[Verse]

Not scared to walk a high wire in your tights

No fears of lions or tigers, or heights

Or any beast battled with chairs

Ants to you are the bears


[Chorus]

No freakshow scares but the audience

With tomatoes ready for your performance

As long as they're laughing with

They can't be laughing at


[Verse]

Let's not talk about it, the curly haired one

That painted your cheeks and gave you a red nose

I know you say hе was a funny man

But the makeup mask is wearing thin

Likе the drink in your hand


[Chorus]

No freakshow scares but the audience

With tomatoes ready for your performance

As long as they're drinking with

They can't be laughing at


[Bridge]

That bartender boyfriend with a palette

Spikes your drinks

With extra strength colors

One drink turns into another

Another fight

Black and blue bruises in the day

Turn green and purple at night


[Chorus]

No freakshow scares but the audience

With tomatoes ready for your performance

As long as they're crying with

They can't be laughing at
