JIMMY O’s WILD WEST CARNIVAL & FREAKSHOW
Copyright 2006 Bill Gaunce

The radio plays Jimmy O
Are you headed out to see the show?
Where the wild wild west meets daddy-o
Let’s jump in the car & go man go -

The marionettes cut loose from their strings
Are free to run in the forest to dance & sing
The bearded lady shaved off her goatee
To make a bid for the presidency

chorus

Come on let’s go it sounds like a blast
Come on let’s go seats are goin’ fast
Come on let’s go it’ll be a gas
I wanna sit in the front row
So I can have a good time lookin’ at the ladies for free


The ballerinas dance & twirl
On the shoulders of a man who looks like a girl
Feeding peanuts to a rabid squirrel
Whose nametag says Big John

The freak-show tent is incomplete-
As the main attractions fill the seats
To cheer us as we take the stage
To play the electric saw

chorus

Come on let’s go it sounds like a blast
Come on let’s go seats are goin’ fast
Come on let’s go it’ll be a gas
I wanna sit in the front row
So I can have a good time lookin’ at the ladies for free

solo

Come on let’s go it sounds like a blast
Come on let’s go seats are goin’ fast
Come on let’s go it’ll be a gas
I wanna sit in the front row where I can
So I can have a good time look look lookin’ at the ladies for free
lookin’ at the ladies for free
Come on let’s go it’ll be a gas
I wanna sit in the front row
So I can have a good time look look lookin’ at the ladies for free
