Sideshow Freak Songtext
von Steven Wright-Mark

She′s up in the big top
They scream and they don't stop
I′m out in the midway
Been waiting here all day

And when the tent comes down
There's no one 'round
I wait for her right here
And she disappears

What am I, a circus geek?
What am I, a sideshow freak?
But all I know is she won′t walk the wire for me
What am I, the saddest clown?
To laugh at when my pants fall down
But all I know is she won′t walk the wire for me, not for me

She's out in the spotlight
She′s loving it tonight
But I'm here with the horses
Where most people ignore us


We walk and talk in step, but not in time
Her defenses intercept my every line

What am I, a circus geek?
What am I, a sideshow freak?
But all I know is she won′t walk the wire for me
What am I, the saddest clown?
To laugh at when my pants fall down
But all I know is she won't walk the wire for me

I climb the ladder high
And almost touch the sky
And when I start to fall I spill it all

What am I, a circus geek?
What am I, a sideshow freak?
But all I know is she won′t walk the wire for me
What am I, the saddest clown?
To laugh at when my pants are down
But all I know is she won't walk the wire for me, not for me
No not for me
No not for me
