Am                     C
Take me to the big show
                      E
Take me anywhere but here
Am                     C
Put me in the front row,
                  E
Make my problems disappear

Trapeze, high wire
Without a safety net
For the price of admission
I wanna witness life or death

Am              E        Am      E
All the pretty girls get cut in half
          Am          E       Am E Am
While the sad clowns make us laugh

Chorus:
  Dm                           Am
I wanna make friends with the freaks,
                  E                          Am
I wanna throw it down with the clowns that I meet,
               Dm                          Am
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
                E                          Am
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
                Dm                         Am
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
                E7
Invite all the carnies and the crazy acrobats
and bearded ladies
And the fire breathers, all the people just like me.

Are you ready to risk it all
And be a human cannonball?
Sharpen up those knives
And throw them at the fool against the wall
We're all against that wall

Chorus

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls
Come one, come all to the Cirque Dans La Rue
Check your troubles at the door
You don't need 'em anymore!
Leave reality outside and come along for the ride
But just remember
While you're watching us
Do the things that we do
We're watching you

All the pretty girls get cut in half
While the sad clowns make us laugh
All the pretty girls get cut in half
While the sad clowns make us laugh

Chorus

Am        Dm Am E Am
Just like me.

I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
Invite all the carnies and the crazy acrobats
And bearded ladies and the fire-breathers
All the people just like me

All the pretty girls get cut in half
While the sad clowns make us laugh
