Circus Life lyrics by Deacon Burns

Hook - Well life is a bitch and before you know it your lying still alone in a casket put in the ground family all around looking down bodies worm food and your just a spirit unless your cremated then your just ashes put in an urn burned hope you don't feel it that's about it when you die you take a shit cause in the end that's really all you get well!!

verse 1
Here's the tale of a sour man a shallow man an empty man a gasping Compulsive nervous man. Hopeless meaningless pointless failure ridden existence type man.
Looking for an escape any escape any way any thing anybody give me the money so i can buy a happy illusion and paint over all the problems i'm an unsolved conundrum going through the motions to stubborn to ask for directions that's why i stay lost and on a mission fill this Prescription relive all the tension listen to my 2 cent wisdom gathered from years of fucking and falling and fighting and failing and finding and losing myself this circus living is quite bad for ones health baby help

Hook - Well life is a bitch and before you know it your lying still alone in a casket put in the ground family all around looking down bodies worm food and your just a spirit unless your cremated then your just ashes put in an urn burned hope you don't feel it that's about it when you die you take a shit cause in the end that's really all you get well!!

Verse 2
Once upon a midnight dreary while i pondered weak and weary pills weed and whisky slowly kill me bullshit ratchet raunchy rowdy bitches and parties i'm so high and drunk off bacardi i can hardly barely hold this microphone steady so you can hear it every sadistic twisted lyric so get ready cause my shit is crazy but that's the way god made me now who i'm i to deny the insanity need a remedy and since doctors don't to agree i gotta self self medicate until i can't stand straight oh shit i meant sit since i gotta broken back as if i fought bane over your forehead like bangs bitch it's that propane spit i'm like spit from beat street throwing tags all over your piece

Hook - Well life is a bitch and before you know it your lying still alone in a casket put in the ground family all around looking down bodies worm food and your just a spirit unless your cremated then your just ashes put in an urn burned hope you don't feel it that's about it when you die you take a shit cause in the end that's really all you get well!!
