Whatever happened to the great escape
The finest ever made?
Crafted with pride by masters on the trade
The world's greatest circus
We had this story of the impossible
A tale best told softly
One of make-believe
Maybe impossible to achieve
But really close
Who soothed the lion's hungry in the cage
With the confidence of a clown?
The little man who rises on the stage
As he falls without a safety net?
We had the story of the impossible
A tale best told softly
One of make-believe
Maybe impossible to achieve
But really close
Whatever happened to the great escape
And to all the plans we make?
Crafted with pride by Masters on the trade
The world's greatest circus
We had this story of the impossible
A tale best told softly
One of make-believe
Maybe impossible to achieve
But really close
