Clowns
It was a bright sunny day in July
Todd, Steve, Robby and I
Road our bikes past market square
We saw a sign, stopped and stared
"Circus Coming :Acrobats, Live Animals, and Clowns!
Why the looks in our eyes and the excitement in the air
Of seeing the clowns and the fun we'd share
Cutting grass, and working on farms of all places
The joy of earning our money, the different clown faces
The day had come and we all scattered round
The big top was here, here in our town
We saw Lions, Tigers and Bears oh my!
Daredevils, and acrobats performed way up high
Then all of a sudden the lights all went out
The crowd became silent and not a noise heard throughout
All of a sudden the center stage became lit
With hundreds of clowns, our money well spent
We laughed and chuckled until we could laugh no more
The excitement we shared, our minds did soar
Twenty years later as I pass from town to town
I'll never forget that hot July Day! Especially the Clowns
