On the Road With a Circus

by William Carter Thompson

Clowns that accomplish marvellous things;

Clowns in dress suits,

Clowns in kilts,

Clowns in long skirts,

Clowns on stilts,

Clowns that mimic every fad,

Clowns that make the millions glad,

Clowns that cause the buttons to fly,

Clowns at whom you laugh till you cry;

Clowns of every nation and clime,
