מילים לשיר Off To Join The World – Blaine Larsen

Now, friends listen well, let me tell you a story
Of a footloose young lad who ran off with the circus
I remember just like yesterday
He was cleaning up after the elephants when
Much to his mama's dismay
This highShe had just broken up with a clown
In search of a handsome companion because Withher and her little tutu
Now the with one graceful aerial flip he was smitten
Standing there love struck, why he almost stumbled
And the ringmaster tipped his top hat and said
Into the elephants doing their tricks
Soon after that big top went dark
Son, bid adieu to your heart And his words rang true right there under the bleachers
On the train to the very next town
Now, the old bearded lady, she whispered "be careful"
And the handful of midgets who ride unicycles
Peddled by with one smile and four frowns
His new sweetheart opened the door
So he had a vague sense of uneasiness when
In front of her, there stood one more
And he knew when he saw the clown standing behind her Now, I can't say for sure if it was Barnum or Bailey
To whom I handed the note
But a tall skinny feller standing on stilts
First read these words that I wrote
To some highGoodbye cruel circus
It said I promise to never again give my heart
I'm off to join the world.
