Lyrics
Badadum-badadum-badadum-badada
– Ibadadum-ibadadum-ibadadum-ibadada
My life is a circus
– Ukuphila kwami kuyisekisi
Hold on for all I bring with me
– Bambelela kukho konke engikuletha nami
You make me nervous
– Ungenza ngikhathazeke
Take my sincere apology
– Thatha ukuxolisa kwami okuqotho
For all of my oddities
– Ngazo zonke izinto zami ezingavamile
My recurring comedies
– Amahlaya ami aphindaphindwayo
I know I’m on a
– Ngiyazi ukuthi ngisemkhunjini
Carousel spinning around
– I-Carousel ejikelezayo
Floating up and down
– Ukuntanta phezulu naphansi
Nowhere to go
– Ayikho indawo ongaya kuyo
Will you break the spell?
– Ingabe uyophula umlingo?
Tether me to your ground
– Ngibophe emhlabathini wakho
Such a spectacle
– Umbukwane onjalo
You signed up for one hell of a
– Ubhalisele i-one hell of a
One man show
– Umbukiso womuntu oyedwa
Tangled in ribbons
– Ukuxubana kwamabhande
A lifelong role
– Indima yokuphila konke
Aren’t you sorry that you fell?
– Awuzisoli yini ngokuthi wawa?
Onto this carousel
– Kuleli carousel
The city of acrobats
– Idolobha lama-acrobat
Of clowns and illusory traps with me
– Ama-clown nezingibe ezingekho
Was losing its wonder
– Yayisilahlekelwa isimangaliso sayo
I thought I would go under, till we met
– Ngangicabanga ukuthi ngizongena ngaphansi, kuze kube yilapho sihlangana
I’m waiting for you to see
– Ngilindele ukuba ubone
The things that are wrong with me
– Izinto ezingalungile kimi
Before you’re on my
– Ngaphambi kokuba ube semkhunjini wami
Carousel spinning around
– I-Carousel ejikelezayo
Floating up and down
– Ukuntanta phezulu naphansi
Nowhere to go
– Ayikho indawo ongaya kuyo
Till you break the spell
– Kuze kube yilapho uphula umlingo
Tether me to your ground
– Ngibophe emhlabathini wakho
Such a spectacle
– Umbukwane onjalo
You signed up for one hell of a
– Ubhalisele i-one hell of a
One man show
– Umbukiso womuntu oyedwa
Tangled in ribbons
– Ukuxubana kwamabhande
A lifelong role
– Indima yokuphila konke
I’m so sorry that you fell
– Ngiyaxolisa kakhulu ngokuthi wawa
Onto this carousel
– Kuleli carousel
