Lyrics Manfred Mann's Earth Band

Manfred Mann's Earth Band

Circles

Going round in circles

Directions all messed up

I go to ground on a bottle of wine

And drown myself in the flood

My frozen toes are beginning to melt

I believe I'm catching a cold

Got oil on my feathers and I can't fly

I gotta get back to your love

I'm a clown without a circus

There's no-one to see my act

I can laugh and sing and stand on my head

Nobody knows where I'm at ...

My days are long and lonely

And I feel so insecure

There ain't nothing funny I'm losing you honey

I can't laugh anymore

I can't laugh anymore

Going round in circles

Directions all messed up

I go to ground on a bottle of wine

And drown myself in the flood

My frozen toes are beginning to melt

I believe I'm catching a cold

Got oil on my feathers and I can't fly

I gotta get back to your love

Old Chang surely told me

Not to mess with what you've got

But I went stomping all over your head

Like a bull in a China shop

My days are long and lonely

And I feel so insecure

There ain't nothing funny I'm losing you honey

I can't laugh anymore

I can't laugh anymore

I'm a clown without a circus

There's no-one to see my act

I can laugh and sing and stand on my head

Nobody knows where I'm at

Going round in circles

Directions all messed up

I go to ground on a bottle of wine

Drowning myself in the flood
