[Verse 1]
Nothing is for certain
That's what the showman said
First you must open the curtain
And stand 'em on their heads
[Verse 2]
There can be no inhibitions
No prima donna ways
If you wanna pass the audition
And times is tough these days
[Verse 3]
Remember when Mr. Barnum
Presented Jenny Lind
They named a candy after her
A circus after him
[Verse 4]
End of my story
The rest is history
She in all of her glory
He lived quietly
[Verse 5]
He needed her, she needed him
As sure as the skies above
In a way it was for them
A lesson in love
A lesson in love
Nothing is for certain
That's what the showman said
First you must open the curtain
And stand 'em on their heads
[Verse 2]
There can be no inhibitions
No prima donna ways
If you wanna pass the audition
And times is tough these days
[Verse 3]
Remember when Mr. Barnum
Presented Jenny Lind
They named a candy after her
A circus after him
[Verse 4]
End of my story
The rest is history
She in all of her glory
He lived quietly
[Verse 5]
He needed her, she needed him
As sure as the skies above
In a way it was for them
A lesson in love
A lesson in love
