From "Jupiter the Balloon Horse"
The calliope is churning through
"Old Folks at Home."
The roustabouts spread some extra straw
Around the hippodrome
And the rubes are filing in
As the carpet clowns begin
But we came off of the breadline
To see you headline tonight
In '31 there wasn't
Much to smile about
But I was there when the Flying Squadron
Laid the canvas out
And now I can't suppress this grin
As the hostler leads you in
And a thousand necks crane
As you whip your mane
And you rise
And you rise
And you rise
And you rise
Hey la la
Hey la la
Hey la la
Hey la la
Hey!
Hey, Jupiter
Can you rise above
Rise above me
Hey!
Hey, Jupiter
With the liberty horses watching jealously
From the menagerie
From the menagerie
Hey la la
Hey la la
Hey la la
Hey la la
(Greg Kutcher - lead guitar)
