I¡¯m the star of Captain Midnite¡¯s travelin¡¯ show
|
Came to this circus many moons ago.
|
My mother¡¯s in your storybooks, she loved a jungle king,
|
Left me standin¡¯ here alone inside the center ring.
|
|
In a bamboo cage I crossed the ragin¡¯ sea,
|
A livin¡¯ page torn clean from history.
|
A hairy, scary, legendary screamin¡¯ souvenir,
|
Now don¡¯t you come too close to me, don¡¯t you come too near.
|
|
I¡¯m the wild man from Borneo,
|
The wild man from Borneo.
|
You come to see what you wanna see,
|
Ah, you come to see but you never come to know.
|
|
The tattooed lady left the circus train
|
Lost all of her pictures in the rain.
|
I wonder if you¡¯re happy, I wonder if you¡¯re free
|
I wonder if you¡¯ll ever know the mark you left on me.
|
|
I¡¯m the wild man from Borneo, The wild man.
|
You come to see what you wanna see,
|
Ah, you come to see but you never come to know.
|
|
We come to see what we want to see,
|
Oh, we come to see, but we never come to know.
