[Refrain]
Roll up, roll up
Wake up in the dark
I feel it gettin' lighter
Watch the world disappear
Tricks to thrill and to fear
Hold your head up higher
[Chorus]
Hurray, they're coming to town
The freaks and the clowns
A merry-go-round
Such a colorfol crowd
(Until the lights go out)
[Verse]
Roll up, roll up
Take a spin on the top
Amazing Death Defier
Once to bring you near
Hold your heart, taste your tears
Won't you walk along the wire?
[Chorus]
Hurray, they're coming to town
The freaks and the clowns
A merry-go-round
Such a colorfol crowd
(Until the lights go out)
[Bridge]
Danger, fire
Run now you liar
Wilder and wilder
Sleep now, it's over
(For another year)
[Refrain]
Roll up, roll up
Wakе up in the dark
I feel it gettin' lighter
Watch thе world disappear
Tricks to thrill and to fear
Hold your head up higher
[Chorus]
Hurray, they're coming to town
The freaks and the clowns
A merry-go-round
Such a colorfol crowd
(Until the lights go out)
