One Life
One life, you only get one life
You only get one chance to make a difference
What else is life for?
One life, you only get one life
So why would I settle for mere existence
When there's so much more?
Why be a cog in a machine
When you could live your perfect dream?
Why be someone who just gets by
When you could be a person who leaves a
Better world than when they arrived?
One life, you only get one life
So it's up to you what you do to fill it
Make the most of time.
One life, you only get one life
So fill it with laughter and afterwards
You will feel so fine.
We wanna fill the world with colours,
We wanna fill the world with noise.
We wanna make the difference to the lives
Of lots and girls and boys.
We wanna make memories that
Nobody ever can forget.
So when they look back at their lives
They always recall the fabulous ball
Yes, out of it all, that's what survives.
One life, you only get one life
So you gotta seize it and squeeze it
Give it your best shot
And when you're old and looking back
You'll say to yourself "well, that was that"
What do I have inside my mind?
Now that I'm done
Did I have much fun?
And what have I left behind?
From my... One Life.
Shut It Down
I don't care if the show is stunning
I don't care if it makes their day
I don't care how long it's been running
I don't care what you had to pay
No, I don't make the rules here
I just say what they are
And when you take us for fools here
Then there is one thing for sure
I must follow the law
Yes that's what I'm for
So no more
Shut it down, shut it down
Time to run this circus out of town
Shut it down, shut it down
Ev'ry juggler, acrobat and clown
We don't care what you say
There are rules that people must obey
So shut it down, shut it down
Can this circus carry on? No way!
I don't care 'bout the joy you're bringing
Or the smile on a kiddy's face
I don't care 'bout the epic singing
Or the tightropers' speech and grace
No we see something bigger
A loss of discipline
Life is work and rules and rigour
It's not colourful lights
It's not dazzling sights
It's not wonderful nights
They're all sin!

We want the chance to make it with the very best
Then come on, let's go, let's run away
To a brighter day

Shut it down, shut it down
Ev'ry juggler, acrobat and clown
We don't care what you say
There are rules that people must obey
So shut it down, shut it down
Can this circus carry on? No way!
Why not spend your days hard-working
'Stead of prancing round and twerking
Honest labour is the path to keep Satan away
You could go and pick up litter
'Stead you wear sequins and glitter
You're a fine example of moral decay
So out of my way!
Shut it down, shut it down
Time to run this circus out of town
Shut it down, shut it down
Ev'ry juggler, acrobat and clown
We don't care what you say
There are rules that people must obey
So shut it down, shut it down
Can this circus carry on?
No way!
