You are a lady contortionist, it's your God - given right,

you had me in contortions just the other night.

I knew where I was coming from

and gave the cat a fright.

But all in all I had a ball,

as high as any kite.

I'm very glad I met you

when the circus was in town,

I could see that things were looking up

when I saw you looking down.

Something clicked, you had me licked

I was yours sincerely

swinging on your high trapeze

you seemed so much at ease

and when I saw you on your knees

I could see quite clearly.

 

with your arms around me

you really do surround me

and with your osteopathic magic

i'm underneath your spell.

I have a feeling that's most appealing

with your feet and head turned to the ceiling

that things will turn out well.

 

But now my love has been declared

and with your charms I am ensnared

the circus is here to take you away

to take you away

to take you away

 

to   take  you          away.
