lyrics

Nice to meet you all
First name is Helixx
Here to interview for the job posted up on Craigslist
The job description said this theatre’s hiring a puppet for it’s circus
And I’m like wow! I think I just found my purpose
As you can see I just cut my strings
My last ventriloquist wasn’t making my heart sing
I was a corporate puppet
corporate America
20 years
Now I’m looking for a new job
Without a puppeteer
I have my resume with me
You have questions?
Skills are transferable
at least that’s my impression
How so? You ask
Here, let me think
I had to walk a tightrope with deadlines I couldn’t even blink
Had to swallow swords
do death-defying feats see
Bozo the clown would say I’m what you need
I tamed lions, tigers, bears, oh my
Became a snake charmer with flair, does that apply?
My hair was on fire, it matched my attire
You know the charcoal look is just oozing with desire
I mean, without question, made it look effortless
Late nights chained to my desk made me an elephant of sorts
By day, kinda like the Exorcist, at lunch time Whodini
It’s all about the temperament
Bring joy? Yeah, like Wednesday Addams
or Lydia from Beetlejuice at least that’s been my pattern
I’m a Tim Burton movie to a tee
The Tompkins Square Park version of a lurid Midsummer Night’s dream
I know clowns and they know me
I dated a few, maybe more than three. Shhhhhh
I used to say that the circus came to me and now I know the circus is the only place to be
Thank you for your time, I hope you would agree
There is no other choice. This job was built for me
Thank you for your time, I hope you would agree
There is no other choice. This job was built for me

Thank you for your time, I hope you would agree
There is no other choice. This job was built for me
For me
For me
