From the album: You Better Believe It! (2012)
Lyrics:
I bought a toy circus that came in the mail
with a chameleon who crossed on a tightrope
I bought a toy circus that came in the mail
with a chameleon who swung on the trapeze
We all love chameleons who come in the mail
but this one was not living when it finally arrived
I bought a toy circus that came in the mail
with a chameleon who already died
dead chameleons are not so exciting
they don’t do tricks and are not that inviting
your parents may love this charming, clean pet
but not if a dead one is all that you get
I bought a toy circus that came in the mail
with plastic giraffes that don’t walk on the tightrope
I bought a toy circus that came in the mail
though I think that clowns are the creepiest creatures
We all love chameleons who come in the mail
with leashes and halters so they can be tamed cruelly
I bought a toy circus that came in the mail
with a chameleon who already died
Come one, come all, step right up, and see the deadest chameleon in the world
