The circus made it's way to town
the clowns are packed like sardines
spilling out from tiny cars
I wonder how they could breathe
Set up in an open field
there's no shade to be seen
it's fine they have their tents
and they brought their own trees
Instrumental break:
Balloons litter the busy
the air is not cheap
people line up one by one
'til the ringleader flees
Everything's intoxicating
the senses in overdrive
Let's take a walk, it's not too far
Come to Shakedown with me
There's a girl she follows the show around
she's not part of the act, but she'll steal the crowd
She's the belle of the ball
If you get caught in her trance, she'll put a grin on your smile
If you get caught in her trance, she'll put a grin on your smile
If you get caught in her trance, she'll put a grin on your smile
If you get caught in her trance, she'll put a grin on your smile
If you get caught in her trance, she'll put a grin on your smile
