Beautiful little wild boy Cute in your suit of corduroy Once the playground had no bars Do you remember when? Beautiful little feral child Out on the concrete running wild All of the servants call you sir Now that your nails are clean Do you remember fun in the jungle? A little rough and tumble with your friends? Do you remember back when you were happy? Before they tried to civilise you again Why don't you come and join the circus Come and join the circus Come and join the circus, wild boy? Beautiful little wild boy What is the thing that brings you joy? Playing with the mongrels in the yard Under the midnight moon Pitiful little wild child Posing for portraits with a smile Closing your eyes and pinching yourself Won't make it go away Do you remember blue sky above you? The monkeys loved you like you were their own Just look around you, the real world has found you And frowns when you chew meat off the bone No wonder you feel so alone Why don't you come and join the circus Come and join the circus Come and join the circus, wild boy? Do you remember endless days of pleasure? Now nothing measures up or can compare I'll take you where you're free, my untamed treasure And I promise you we'll both be millionaires Why don't you come and join the circus Come and join the circus Come and join the circus, wild boy? Come and join the circus Come and join the circus Come and join the circus, wild boy?
