Daniel Johnston — Circus Man

If I was a circus man Then I'd be a circus man Only you could understand All my life ahead of me That's the way it ought to be Circus take me away Wonder where I've been again Then I'll be back again See a brand new day See the girlie on TV Wonder if she could see me By the funny magazines of talk It's a secret part of me, secret identity Love to love my honey all night long Take a walk around the block See the future of the clock No good in forgetting If I was a circus man Only you would understand There's a story there to tell See your brother burn in hell
