Circus Songtext
von Koe Wetzel

No, this wasn′t what I pictured
When I dreamed of driving across the desert
You and me and Bubba
Playing Red Hot Chilli Peppers
No, this wasn't what I pictured
When I went and joined the circus
And now my best friend′s in some rehab
And I'm touring basements and some churches

And I swore I thought I could manifest my happiness, baby
And I swore I thought I would be somewhere different

But the big wheel keeps on turning around
I'm still painting on a smile, trying to hide my frown
And when the lights come up, I′m still the same sad fuck
Guess the circus wasn′t what I thought it was
I guess the circus wasn't what I thought it was, yeah


No, this ain′t what I pictured
My soul is busted, I'll admit it
I keep checking off my boxes
But then, now nothing seems to fix it

And I swore I thought I could manifest my happiness, baby
And I swore I thought I′d be somewhere different

But the big wheel keeps on turning around
I'm still painting on a smile, trying to hide my frown
When the lights come up, I′m still the same sad fuck
Guess the circus wasn't what I thought it was
I guess the circus wasn't what I thought it was, hey

No, this ain′t what I pictured
No, this ain′t what I pictured
When I went and joined the circus, I thought I would find my purpose
But I'm still hungry, and I′m still angry
And I'm just laughing at myself

′Cause the big wheel keeps on turning around
I'm still painting on a smile, trying to hide my frown
And when the lights come up, I′m still the same sad fuck
Guess the circus wasn't what I thought it was
I guess the circus wasn't what I thought it was
