Vem chegando a lona suja
O grande circo humano
Com a fome do palhaço e a bailarina louca
Vamos festejar
A costela que vai se quebrar
No trapézio é bobagem
A miséria pouca
Bem no meio desse picadeiro
Vão acontecer
Morte, glória
E surpresas no final da história
Pão e circo prata e lua
Um sorriso vai se desenhar
No amargo dessa festa
Junto dessa escória
Sobe e desce a montanha
O grande circo humano
No seu lombo, no seu ombro magro
Carregando
Prata e luar
O mistério que vai se mostrar
No arame
Equilíbrio sobre o sol raiando
Sonha espera o grande circo humano
Coração partido circo humano
