Life is a dead end
Full of doubt
Can't keep my head up
In the clouds
Life is a planet
More square than round
No hole to fit in
Oh, pull me down

'cause ain't nobody told me there might not be nobody for me
Ain't nobody told me there might not be nobody for me
Don't let the curtain go down on me
Go down, down on me

Life is the rolling thunder
When the lights go out
But I'll be much stronger now
Gotta hold the whole world in my arms
Life is a circus
So send in the clowns
Can't keep my head up
With your guard looking down

Ain't nobody told me there might not be nobody for me
Ain't nobody told me there might not be nobody for me
Don't let the curtain go down on me
Go down, down on me

I'm shining
No need to shine for anyone but me
I'm shining
No need to shine for anyone but me
I'm shining (ain't nobody told me there might not be nobody for me)
No need to shine for anyone but me
I'm shining (ain't nobody told me there might not be nobody for me)
No need to shine for anyone but me
I'm shining (shining)
No need to shine for anyone but me
I'm shining (shining)
No need to shine for anyone but me
