Текст Matthew Morrison – Circus Of Your Mind

Charles:
I’ve heard enough, you’re losing your mind
You’re speaking in riddles, and the riddles don’t rhyme
You want flying children up there on the stage

You say I will adore it
But I’m paying for it
A little more reality and less of this insanity
How’m I going to face it?
Such a disgrace, yet
Here we go again, and again, and again!

You are living on a merry go
Round and round you seem to go
And I’ll never understand why
You want people floating weightlessly
Ceilings where the floor should be
These and other things you will find
In the circus of your mind

Mary:
I’ve resigned myself to spend all my life
To be all the things one expects from a wife
Your imagination is where you reside,
Though my invitation has never arrived

Darling, though you try
You cannot deny
She’s on every single page of your journal, James
Now we have to face it
Such a disgrace, yet
There you go again, and again, and again!

It’s like living on a merry go

Mrs. du Maurier:
There has been nothing but trouble and strife
Ever since you came into this family’s life
So much disruption the children don’t need
And as for my daughter, I must intercede

Everything about you
They can do without you
Take flights of fantasy, I question your morality
I told them to ignore you
Now I must implore you
Leave them alone, stay away, we all know

You are living on a merry go
Round and round you seem to go
Understand that we have no time
For the circus of your mind

Charles:
Clock is ticking, James
Bad form, bad form

Mary:
Laughingstock of London!

Mrs. du Maurier:
Spare us your crocodile tears, Mr. Barrie

All:
Tick, tock
Tick, tock
Tick, tock
Tick, tock

Charles:
Children who are fairies

Mrs. du Maurier:
That man is a grown-up behaving like a boy!

All + ensemble:
It’s like living on a merry go
Round and round we seem to go
No one ever seems to know why
We’re doing everything that we can do
To finally prove to you
Trying to make you see what you’ll find
In the circus of your mind!
(Mind…)
In the circus
In the circus
In the circus of your mind!
