Circus Envy Lyrics

    Here comes that awful feeling again
    Welcome the ugly animal.
    I hold my breath to what you sing,
    My pyro acrobat ball and chain,
    I’m not afraid, I messed it, messed it, messed it, messed it up

    I’ve got my telescope head in the haystack
    I’m getting tired of your dodgeball circus act
    Put pepper in my coffee, I forgot to bark on command

    Here comes that awful feeling again
    Make way for monster jealousy
    The strong man kicked sand into my breakfast cereal bowl
    I’d spelled your name with Oatios,
    He messed it, messed it, messed it, messed it up

    I’ve got my telescope head in the haystack
    I am tired of your dodgeball circus act
    Put pepper in my coffee, I forgot to bark on command

    (you’re mean, mean, mean)
    (you tease, tease, tease me)

    If I were you I’d really run from me
    I’d really really wish that I were you
    When I get loose I’ll climb a tree
    And drop a load on your head
    This monster in me makes me retch, you messed it, messed it up

    I’ve got my telescope head in the haystack
    I am jealous of your dodgeball circus act
    Put pepper in my coffee, I forgot to bark
    Put pepper in my coffee, I forgot to bark on command

    (you’re mean, mean, mean)
    (you tease, tease, tease me)

    Do you smell jealousy?
    Do you smell jealousy, jealousy, jealousy?
