After the Fire - Wild West Show lyrics

Life is a circus, a crazy circus With everybody in the ring at the same time and no-one waiting for the band to start I think it's gonna blow the show apart Life is a movie, we are the actors But everybody's going round all thinking they should be the one to get the starring part There's gonna be a lot of broken hearts Feel like a rider in a wild west show Caught up in a rodeo I don't know which way to go Life is an ocean, I want to swim it I don't know which way I should go if I should ever want to try and find the nearest shore Or if it's even what I'm looking for Life is a mountain, I want to climb it If I go up I have to stop if I go down I only get to where I've been before I think there's got to be a little more Feel like a rider in a wild west show Caught up in a rodeo I don't know which way to go Can someone tell me what is going on, give me directions and I'll meet you there If it's a joke it's going on too long, we've had all the thrills none of the fun of the fair This roller coasters going much too fast, don't think we're gonna make it round the bend I'm breathing every breath as if it is my last, hold on to your hats I think we're going round again Life's a game of football, but no-ones watching 'Cause everybody's on the pitch and going mad cause there is on-one who can find the ball It's gonna turn into a free for all Feel like a rider in a wild west show Caught up in a rodeo I don't know which way to go
