Lyrics (unofficial)

Do do, do do do do do
Do do do do do
Do do do do do

Do do, do do do do do
Do do do do do

The morning sings behind me
As I stroll on into town
The buttons on my coat
Keep dragging all my fingers down
Quickly, like a circus dog
Now everyone's a clown
For the girl

The horses with the bridled fury
Trot 'round an empty ring
The old ballet of yesterday
Has been replaced by the nearest thing
Yes, the net is gone
And maybe now this one can sing
Oh, the girl

Bring all the liars
Let's light a big fire
For the girl on the highwire
Bring all the criers
Let's start a big cry
For the girl on the highwire

Bring all the liars
Let's light a big fire
For the girl on the highwire
Bring all the criers
Let's start a big cry
For the girl on the highwire

Bring all the liars
Let's light a big fire
For the girl on the highwire
Bring all the criers
Let's start a big cry
For the girl on the highwire

Do do, do do do do do
Do do do do do
