Making things come alive

Seemingly out of thin air

Playing to the crowded house

Bowing to their applause

Painted face lit up with a smile

Un-flinching when there’s no response

Moving on deft to the next round

There are crates of tricks left to unfold

Song and dance and bright costumes

Pretty girls in nice lil skirts

Making the audience sit up and watch

When late in the night, they stifle their yawn

Doing a vanishing act

Making elephants come on stage

Slicing someone in two halves

Anything, anything for a glance

We’re all performers here

Playing to a gallery

It’s pure showmanship

What may seem not be true

It’s all just fun

A laugh or two at the end

It’s all there is to it

We’re all magicians here

Out of thin air, we appear

Like hot air balloons we rise up

Anything, anything for some praise

It’s all for applause, pure showmanship!
