[F] [C] [C7]
[F]All of you children, come [C]gather around
The [A#]Jumping Flea Circus is [F]coming to [C]town
The [F]fleas have been traveling all [C]over the world
[A#]Spreading their joy to the [F]boys and the [C]girls
[A#]All of the fun they have [C]waiting for you
Will [F]only [A7]cost you a [Dm]dime [F]
Come [A#]see the flea circus[C] for a limited [F]time [C] [C7]
{c: }
The [F]Tiny Top tent is set [C]up on a tray
And it's [A#]tied to a table so it [F]won't blow a[C]way
The [F]ringmaster is a jol[C]ly little flea
Who [A#]stands upon a thimble for [F]all to [C]see
[A#]His ukulele is im[C]possibly small
And he [F]plays it im[A7]possibly [Dm]loud [F]
"[A#]Welcome to the circus!"[C] he sings to the [F]crowd. [C] [C7]
{c:(spoken)}
"[F]Ladies and gentlemen! Your [C]attention, please!
[A#]Welcome, one and all, to the [F]circus of [C]fleas!
[F]Here they come now to the [C]center of the ring...
[A#]Watch them perform as they [F]jump and they [C]sing!
They're [A#]simply amazing as they [C]leap through the air
And pirou[F]ette with the [A7]greatest of [Dm]ease! [F]
[A#]Folks, you're in for a treat![C]
It's the [F]world-famous circus of fleas!"
{c:(sung)}
[C](la la la [C7]la la la)
{c: }
A [F]centipede balances [C]on the high wire
[A#]Grasshoppers jump through an [F]earring of [C]fire
[F]Spiders are swinging up [C]on the trapeze
[A#]Ladybugs dance with the [F]acrobat [C]fleas
[A#]Pill bugs are shot from a [C]cannon
The [F]Beetles [A7]play in a [Dm]band [F]
The [A#]Jumping Flea circus[C] is the best in the [F]land [C] [C7]
{c: }
[A#]Let's give a big [C]cheer (hooray!)
For the [F]smallest [A7]show of the [Dm]year
[F]Oh, The [A#]Jumping Flea Circus[C] is finally [F]here! [C] [C7] [F]
