Human Cannonball Chords & Lyrics - Misc Unsigned Bands - Rainbow Danger Club

[VERSE]

What are you building down there in the dark?
[F]Every night a[A#]lone under candle light and[F] spark, concealed
[F]in the ting tan[A#]g of metals and the melting[F] of steel[C] .
If something[F] should g[A#]o wrong we will have to car[Dm]ry you away,
our onl[F]y son. [A#] [F]
[A#] [F] [A#]

[CHORUS]
Ladies and gentlemen, may I present to you not a lion in a cage,
[F]not a juggl[C]er or swallower [A#]of blades but the Hum[F]an Cannonball[C] .
[A#] [F] [C] [A#] [C] [C] [F]

[VERSE]
My sister was an acrobat, an artist of the swings.
My father tamed the beasts and was the master of the three circus rings.
When my brother walked the tight rope, no one made a sound,
but he tumbled in the spotlight. Echoes cried when he hit the ground.
We'll miss you.

[CHORUS]
I am the Human Cannonball,
not a lion in your cage,
not a juggler or swallower of blades.
I will fly to painted stars.
