lyrics

I knew it was time, time to go out and face the world
It was kind of hard leaving the circus
but I had to stand on my own 2 stumps

Well that was 6 months ago now,
and up to now I`m doing just fine
I got a job with the construction company
Donkey jacket: pneumatic geek!

I work on the roadside,
I think it’s real neat
It`s better than running round the ringside
With sawdust on my feet

All the girls love me,
They think I`m real cool
When they see me on the tarmac
Drilling with my tool cos I`m a

pn—pn—p—pneumatic geek
I jerk up and down give my friends a treat, cos i`m a
pn—pn—p—pneumatic geek
I don`t eat veg only chicken meat

I got fired from the circus cos I made people scared
Now I wear donkey jackets and work in the open air
I`ve got a girl and she makes me real proud
But she hides me in a basket when people come around

I can feel it in my water my life is now complete
No more carnivals for me cos now I dig holes in the street
It`s a pretty safe job but please don`t think I`m square
It beats the shit anyday of working in the fair
