And please remember me, seldomly
In the car behind the carnival
My hands between your knees, you turn from me
And said the trapeze act was wonderful
But never meant to last
The clowns that passed
Saw me just come up with anger
When it filled with circus dogs
The parking lot
Had an element of danger

So please, remember me finally
And all my uphill clawing
but if I make the pearly gates
I'll do my best to make a drawing
Of God and Lucifer, a boy and girl
An angel kissing on a sinner
