I'm back in the circusBack in the small town, big topBacked up against the wallAnd nothing's quite what I thoughtI've got holes in my fishnetsHoles in my last alibiAnd I can't rememberWhen it was that I last saw blue skyAnd every town's the sameOnly the names and faces changeOn this rollercoaster ride, up and downBut I never get to the other sideBack in the circusBut at least I know the routineGot back to back matineesMe and the drag-queensWe are queens of the funhouseKings of the real house of gamesYeah princes of darknessAnd we're all on first name basesAnd every man's the sameOnly the times and places changeOn this rollercoaster ride, up and downBut I never get to the other sideAnd all the pretty horsesAnd all the pretty menWell they could not put this pretty heartBack together again, O noAnd every town's the sameOnly the names and faces changeOn this rollercoaster ride, up and downBut I never get to the other sideEvery man's the sameOnly the times and places changeOn this rollercoaster ride, up and downBut I never get to the other side
