Britney Spears Circus Song Lyrics –
There’s only two types of people in the world
The ones that entertain, and the ones that observe
Well baby, I’m a put-on-a-show kind of girl
Don’t like the backseat
Gotta be first
(Oh..)
I’m like the ringleader, I call the shots (Call the shots)
I’m like a firecracker, I make it hot
When I put on a show…
[Pre-Chorus]
I feel the adrenaline moving through my veins
Spotlight on me and I’m ready to break
I’m like a performer, the dancefloor is my stage
Better be ready, hope that you feel the same
[Chorus]
All eyes on me, in the center of the ring
(Just like a Circus) (Uh. Uh.Uh-huh)
When I crack that whip, everybody gonna trip
(Just like a Circus) (Uh. Uh. Uh-huh)
Don’t stand there watching me, follow me, show me what you can do
Everybody let go, we can make a dancefloor
(Just like a Circus) (Uh. Uh. Uh-huh)
HA. HA. HA. HA. HA. HA. HA.
[Verse 2]
There’s only two types of guys out there
Ones that can hang with me, and ones that are scared
So baby, I hope that you, came prepared
I run a tight ship, so beware
I’m like the ringleader, I call the shots (Call the shots)
I’m like a firecracker, I make it hot
When I put on a show…
[Pre-Chorus]
I feel the adrenaline moving through my veins
Spotlight on me and I’m ready to break
I’m like a performer, the dancefloor is my stage
Better be ready, hope that you feel the same
[Chorus]
All eyes on me, in the center of the ring
(Just like a Circus) (Uh. Uh. Uh-huh)
When I crack that whip, everybody gonna trip
(Just like a Circus) (Uh. Uh. Uh-huh)
Don’t stand there watching me, follow me, show me what you can do
Everybody let go, we can make a dancefloor
(Just like a Circus) (Uh. Uh. Uh-huh)
HA. HA. HA. HA. HA. HA. HA. (Let’s go)
[Break]
(Uh. Uh. Uh-huh) Let me see what you can do
(Uh. Uh. Uh-huh) I’m runnin’ this
(Like-like-like a circus) Yeah
Like a what? (Like-like-like a circus)
[Chorus]
All eyes on me, in the center of the ring
(Just like a Circus) (Uh. Uh. Uh-huh)
When I crack that whip, everybody gonna trip
(Just like a Circus) (Uh. Uh. Uh-huh)
Don’t stand there watching me, follow me, show me what you can do
Everybody let go, we can make a dancefloor
(Just like a Circus) (Uh. Uh. Uh-huh)
All eyes on me, in the center of the ring
(Just like a Circus) (Uh. Uh. Uh-huh)
When I crack that whip, everybody gonna trip
(Just like a Circus) (Uh. Uh. Uh-huh)
Don’t stand there watching me, follow me, show me what you can do
Everybody let go, we can make a dancefloor
(Just like a Circus) (Uh. Uh. Uh-huh)
