"Clown In A Barrel" lyrics

"Clown In A Barrel"

I'm a clown in a barrel and baby you the bull
Pushin' me 'round this arena floor
With a heart hung up and a mind that's made
No buckle to win, only prize is pain

Lord it takes a crazy fool
To keep holdin' on the way I do
Ain't hard to tell who's breakin' who
When I'm the only one with everything to lose
It's a game of chance, a desperate dance
A twisted awful beautiful
I'm a clown in a barrel and baby you the bull

I ain't nothin' but a glutton for hoof and horn
Leavin' me bleedin' but wantin' more
So I show back up with a painted smile
And the show goes on for another night

Lord it takes a crazy fool
To keep holdin' on the way I do
Ain't hard to tell who's breakin' who
When I'm the only one with everything to lose
It's a game of chance, a desperate dance
A twisted awful beautiful
I'm a clown in a barrel and baby you the bull

Yeah you roll me round 'til you've had your fun
And you walk away when you're good and done

Lord it takes a crazy fool
To keep holdin' on the way I do
Ain't hard to tell who's breakin' who
When I'm the only one with everything to lose
It's a game of chance, a desperate dance
A twisted awful beautiful
I'm a clown in a barrel and baby you the bull
I'm a clown in a barrel and baby you the bull
