The lion this time again 
He's in the circus in a cage 
He's trying to break out of the frame 
The lion this time 

He hears that same old sad refrain 
But they can't hold him with no chain 
And they just can't denounce his claim 
The lion again 

And he's trying to get free 
He knows that something's bothering me 
That I'm not too blind to see 
The lion again 
Oh, the love that's in his soul 
Is trying to get out you know 
If only you could hear it roar 
The lion again this time 

They couldn't take away his throne 
He knows that he must stand alone 
If need be, have a heart of stone 
The lion again 

The lion this time again 
He's in the circus in a cage 
No wonder that he's in a rage 
The lion again 

And he's trying to get free 
And he knows that something's bothering me 
Oh, but I'm not too blind to see 
The lion this time 
The longing that's in his soul 
Is trying to get out you know 
Only you could hear it roar 
For the lion this time 

They couldn't take away his throne 
He knows that he must stand alone 
If need be have a heart of stone 
The lion again 

The lion again this time 
He's in the circus in a cage 
No wonder that he's in a rage 
The lion this time 

The lion this time again 
He's in the circus in a cage 
No wonder that he's not the same 
The lion again 

The lion this time, the lion this time 
The lion this time, the lion this time 
The lion this time, the lion this time 
The lion this time, the lion this time 
The lion this time
