John Wesley Harding - Wild Boy Lyrics




Beautiful little wild boy
Cute in your suit of corduroy
Once the playground had no bars
Do you remember when?

Beautiful little feral child
Out on the concrete running wild
All of the servants call you sir
Now that your nails are clean

Do you remember fun in the jungle?
A little rough and tumble with your friends?
Do you remember back when you were happy?
Before they tried to civilise you again

Why don't you come and join the circus
Come and join the circus
Come and join the circus, wild boy?

Beautiful little wild boy
What is the thing that brings you joy?
Playing with the mongrels in the yard
Under the midnight moon
Pitiful little wild child
Posing for portraits with a smile
Closing your eyes and pinching yourself
Won't make it go away

Do you remember blue sky above you?
The monkeys loved you like you were their own
Just look around you, the real world has found you
And frowns when you chew meat off the bone
No wonder you feel so alone

Why don't you come and join the circus
Come and join the circus
Come and join the circus, wild boy?

Do you remember endless days of pleasure?
Now nothing measures up or can compare
I'll take you where you're free, my untamed treasure
And I promise you we'll both be millionaires

Why don't you come and join the circus
Come and join the circus
Come and join the circus, wild boy?

Come and join the circus
Come and join the circus
Come and join the circus, wild boy?
