World Inferno Friendship Society So Long To The Circus Lyrics

Sometimes I miss the circus but I know why I ran away
I stepped right out of that song while it played
I lit it like a stage and I gave it like a gift
What I got out of it is this
Be suspicious but friendly to your elders
Be friendly but suspicious to other circuses
Trust your friends even if you can't trust your friends
You've already agreed to travel with them
So long to the circus, so long to it all
I've always had a good sense of when it's time to get
gone
When the police are about to arrive, when security
steps in
Wave goodbye to the circus
Sometimes I miss the circus and the friends I made
Never would have left had you stayed
You left us like a stage that you'd outgrown

Leaving me stunned and all alone So long to the circus, so long to it all
I've always had a good sense of when it's time to get
gone
When the police are about to arrive, when security
steps in
Wave goodbye to the circus
Wave goodbye to the circus, don't cry
It was just another circus, it was just your first time
You didn't know what you were doing, you couldn't know
what you missed
What did you get out of this?
That Love is real, unstoppable
Actually a wild animal
Self-interested, amoral and cruel
And you got between it and food
So long to the circus, so long to it all
You should have a good sense of when it's time to get
gone
When the police are about to arrive, when security
steps in
Wave goodbye to the circus
