Circus!

VS.l.

I went to the circus and what did I see

Bom, bom, bom, bom!  A silly clown

Looking back at me. I asked him to show me.

I asked if he could, what makes the circus so good?

And he went juggling and tumbling and jumping in the air,

And he had the funniest face. Red and white with no hair.

VS.2

I went to the circus and what did I see

Bom, bom, bom, bom!  A dancer in a costume

Looking back at me. I asked her to show me.

I asked if she could, what makes the circus so good?

And she went dancing and springing and spinning like a top

She span so fast. I thought she’d never stop

VS.3 .

I went to the circus and what did I see

Bom. bom. bom. bom!  A trapeze artist

Looking back at me. I asked him to show me.

I asked if he could, what makes the circus so good?

And he went swinging and spinning high above my head.

Looping and zooming in his costume of red

VS.4 .

I went to the circus and what did I see

Bom, bom , bom. bom!  A tight rope walker

Looking back at me. I asked her to show me.

I asked if she could, what makes the circus so good?

And she went tip toe-ing along the  rope  with a gentle sway.

Balancing along the line. Breath-taking I say

VS .5 .

I went to the circus and what did I  see

Bom.  bom.  bom , bom!   The ”Ring – master”

Looking back at me.  I asked him to show me.

I asked if he could, what makes the circus so good?

Come and see the show! The fun and the thrills

Are the circus you know! The clowns and

The great feats. Come if you would. ’cause

That’s what makes  the circus so good!!”   { Repeat from  **}
