Carnelian and Carbuncle were lovers
A secret they kept, undercover
Should the ringmaster ever find out
They’d be fired for sure, there’s no doubt
Making the others keep the secret in tact
The circus clowns would, the master, distract
So they could meet under the tent, but, in a hurry
Time was so short, they would have to scurry
Running around, all over the grounds
Trying very hard, not to make any sounds
Entertaining the people, they were a sight to see
Two elephants, under the big top, making whoopee
Seems their secret was out, oh the shame!
And they had only themselves to blame
A lesson to be learned, never trust a painted face
Everyone knows, the clowns run the whole place
