Above the crowd, he stands so tall,
The grandest showman of them all,
With top hat high and eyes aglow,
He orchestrates the midnight show.
The grandest showman of them all,
With top hat high and eyes aglow,
He orchestrates the midnight show.
On wooden stilts, he strides with pride
As fairground lights flash side by side,
While passing strangers stop to stare
At this colossus of the fair.
As fairground lights flash side by side,
While passing strangers stop to stare
At this colossus of the fair.
With joyful shout and outstretched hands,
He rules across these festive lands,
A giant in the shadows cast,
Where childhood memories live at last.
