If you're used to a carnival every once in a while Then New York doesn't have it Then you gotta write a carnival song But that don't really make it either 'Cause what's a song without a carnival? The song of love is a sad song For we have loved and it's so So come and laugh a while Lily Come and join the show Hi lily lily hi Lo lily lily hi Lo lily lily hi lo The circus comes once a year, Lily Then we gotta go So come and laugh a while Lily Come and join the show Come dancin', dancin' dance a while Come dancin', dancin' dance a while Come dancin', dancin' dance a while with me Me me me me me me me ... More? see the people pass Lily Don't mind what they say Go on and be happy Lily They'll just pass away Hi lily lily hi Lo lily lily hi Lo lily lily hi lo Don't let the Italian kids on your block make fun, Lily (The) song of love is a sad song We have loved and it's so So come and laugh a while Lily Come and join the show Hi lily hi lily Hi lily lo
