I'm not gonna miss the circus.

The circus is in town. And I want to go. My true love isn't so sure. Thinks there may be better things to do. But I'll try to convince her. To see the greatest show on Earth. Last time I was to a circus must have been when I was a kid. Growing up in a small town in Wisconsin. It was a big deal when the circus came town. We all trekked there. To see the wild animals. And the freaks. I doubt that we'll see freaks any more. But I won't be surprised to see a performing bear. Or a tiger leaping through a ring of fire. This is gonna be an Italian circus. Because I'm in Carbonia. In Sardinia. I'm not gonna miss the circus. No matter what. --Jim Broede
