Lights, stage, action!
Welcome to the Lizard Circus,
We're going to
Make this the best circus in the world!
Da da da da da!

Take a rope and let's swing around,
It's all exciting 'round here
Let's get this off the ground!
{Soie, this ain't a zoo!}
{I know Velours, I know!}

Follow along for the start of the show
For, I and Elenk will be
Trapezing to and fro!
Are you ready to watch kawaii lil' me
Teeter through the sky, all pretty!

{'Kawaii', Soie, I told you saying that makes you sound like a weeb!}
{Sheesh, Isamu-san, I know!}
{And, I told you, it ain't teeterin' through the sky!}
{Hehe, goodness me.}

It's time for the trapeze,
I'm ready to fly!
Up I go upon the seat!
Elenk, catch me if I fall!
{That ain't happening, it's a secure seat!}
{Geez, can't you just be a little silly?!}

Time to swing!
The sky behind me!
Soar high, fly low!
And I'm going to land on this trampoline below!
Okay, ready let's gooooooooo!

{You still need the trampoline? Can't believe you!}
{Hey, I'm only a beginner, thought you knew!}
I'm going to swing, so drumroll please!
~Don ka, don, ka, don, ka, don, ka!~


I leap and swing, ta da!
Airborne and free!
Wouldn't you like to swing with me?
Come on, come all, sign up for the trapeze!
{Hey, if you say that people will think we gotta trapeze class!}
{Hehe, well what can I say? People might wanna give it a chance!}

I'm staging my landing,
Drumroll please!
~Don ka, don, ka, don, ka, don, ka!~
Moving towards the trampoline,
I stage my landing perfectly!

But there's just one more trick, don't you see?
I'mma make a lizard tail appear
Right in front of me,
Audience, if you please
Count to fifteen!

{Soie, I thought I told you were not!}
{Hehe, Velours, I'm the star today! I'm makin' the rules!}
{You, you--. Breaking you own rules.}
{That's right!}

Everyone start counting, if you'd please!

One, two.

{I can't believe this, she's serious!}
{She can't be doing this!}

Eh? I can't hear you all, count louder please!

Three, four,
Five
Six
Seven
Eight
Nine

Ten, Eleven

{You're making them count too long!}
{Gotta keep the audience in suspense! So the cheers grow strong!}

Keeping counting, if you'd please!

Twelve, Thirteen,
Fourteen Fifteen,

And tada!
I have made a lizard tail appear right in front of me!

Thank you for coming to the Lizard Circus!
I'm your host, Soie
And I'm going to make this
The Best circus in the world!
Da da da da da!

Da da!
