lyrics

Living in a womb we are shadows in the night
swinging on our sad lullabies
the center of attraction under the spotlight
Ready for the show, we arise

Under the big top oooh, whatcha gonna do
Your acts will tell me what you wanna be
Behind the backdrop oooh, hidden and expected
To entertain and disappear

Throwing knives with pride
Swallowing swords, our hands are tied
Aim for the top, we’re off for a ride
Noises echo inside my head

Here I stand in the middle
I bow at the portal, I know, I’m uncertain

Breathe and eat the fire
Monkeys and clowns, their acts are tight
Climb to the top and slide to the side
Applause is pounding inside my heart

STEP RIGHT IN
To the Greatest Show, the greatest Show
STEP RIGHT IN
To the Greatest show on earth
La la la la la la la la la laaaaa

We’ll be safer in a cage to set the lions free
Let’s feed them with our candy and our corn
As the center of attraction, we’re happy to be seen
Painted a smile on our face when we were born

Under the big top oooh, whatcha gonna do
Your acts will show me what you gonna be
Behind the backdrop oooh, you have been elected
To entertain and disappear

Breathe and eat the fire
Swallowing swords, our hands are tied
Aim for the top, we’re off for a ride
Noises echo inside my head

STEP RIGHT IN
To the Greatest Show, the greatest Show
STEP RIGHT IN
To the Greatest show on earth
La la la la la la la la la laaaaa

Ladies and gentlemen, step right up!
Join the greatest show on earth!
Absolutely NO talent needed to audition…
What do you wanna be ?

Be an magician or a juggle...
How ‘bout you sir, wanna be a strong man?
And the little lady over here, wanna be an acrobat?
“Hey do you want a balloon….?”

Step right in, to the greatest show, the greatest show
Learn to fly like a human cannonball

STEP RIGHT IN
To the Greatest Show, the greatest Show
STEP RIGHT IN
To the Greatest show on earth
La la la la la la la la la laaaaa

Welcome inside, step into the greatest show on earth
