Escargot Blues by Guantanamo Bay Surf Club Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh, she's joining the circus as a part-time clown
Travelling from town to town to make her grandpa proud
Oh, she's putting on her makeup in the mirror
All the lions and the tigers in their cages whisper in her ear
[Chorus]
Ooh, get out
She's the only daughter of a big-top clown
Oh, get out
There's no money in the family business now
[Verse 2]
Oh, she leaves her makeup on after dark
Crying on a bench, scaring passers-by in the park
All the kids, they run and scream
She's a salty dog at seventeen
I told her to leave but she wouldn't hear it from me
[Chorus]
Ooh, get out
She's the only daughter of a big-top clown
Oh, get out
There's no money in the family business now
[Chorus]
Ooh, get out
She's the only daughter of a big-top clown
Oh, get out
There's no money in the family business now
Oh, she's joining the circus as a part-time clown
Travelling from town to town to make her grandpa proud
Oh, she's putting on her makeup in the mirror
All the lions and the tigers in their cages whisper in her ear
[Chorus]
Ooh, get out
She's the only daughter of a big-top clown
Oh, get out
There's no money in the family business now
[Verse 2]
Oh, she leaves her makeup on after dark
Crying on a bench, scaring passers-by in the park
All the kids, they run and scream
She's a salty dog at seventeen
I told her to leave but she wouldn't hear it from me
[Chorus]
Ooh, get out
She's the only daughter of a big-top clown
Oh, get out
There's no money in the family business now
[Chorus]
Ooh, get out
She's the only daughter of a big-top clown
Oh, get out
There's no money in the family business now
