I went to the circus,
Saw the man on the flying trapeze.
Eating hot dogs, soda and popcorn,
Squirming on Daddy's knees.
I saw the lions,
The tigers were roaring loud,
Elephants dancing, Horses were prancing,
Clowns amusing the crowd.
Then a surprise...With wide opened eyes,
What I sight to see...
That's when I saw her, the 'Fat Lady of the Circus''
She was the one for me.
Everyone laughed, she was embarrassed,
A tear in her eye I could see,
Then I stood up, I blew her a kiss,
She smiled and looked at me.
I sent her another, One after the other,
I sent her a total of three.
Who in the world loves 'The Fat Lady of the Circus,
Only this boy,
This little sad boy,
Only a 'Fat Boy'...Like me!
