Intently, the audience stares,
amazement in their eyes.
But they may not know,
my cooperation, a peanut buys.
Balancing on a ball
and posing like I do,
it makes a show man out of me,
it's all I ever knew.
Parade around the tent
with that woman on my back.
She isn't all that heavy,
it's the energy I lack.
Shackled, whipped, and beaten,
men don't treat me right.
Get me some more peanuts,
or I might leave tonight.
