There's a new circus in town
They've got animals and clowns
But the strangest thing they've got
Will make you cry, on the spot
He has to cover his big head
A grotesque face a giant leg,
He looks so helpless and dumb
The children laugh, the women cry
Ref: Clear the way, Clear the way
Make room now for the elephant man
Clear the way for the king of freaks
Clear the way for the hopeless and the weak
Deep inside the darkest cage
Under the most horrific gaze
Lays a poor soul that wants to live
Like any other human being
I had a dream about this poor man
We're in a boat in the ocean
He smiled and sang the strangest song
Then flew away and disappeared in the clouds
