Circus Freaks?

There once was a circus
That drove all around  
Making all of the fuss
Yet not a single sound
 
They had everything
But natural light
Because they only preformed
During the night
 
You go on a bus
By calling a certain guy
You say "I want to see the circus"
And the bus comes like a fly
 
But people who came to watch
Left seeing things odd
Only because they then noticed
That everything was flawed
 
This is because
The "things" inside
Showed them how to breathe
On the other side
 
"On the other side"
Being, the abstract world
The world with different people
Who's minds were curled
 
I mean, they had people
Who could eat a whole spoon
Or really anything
From here to the moon
 
And who could forget  
That lady with the hair
But read the sign
It said "DO NOT STARE"
 
And I think I remember seeing
This oddly skinned child
He had skin of an elephant
But was ten times wild
 
One of my favorites though
Was the two-faced man
He was really quite nice
But only one face was tan!
 
The night I went to see
What was the big fuss
I left with new friends
But not from the bus
