I swear by all that makes me breathe and with a half-closed jasmine eye   I will slam the mighty claw into the ground   And dig up the treasure I've heard tell is around...   For I have come to play, and no one can take that away   And if I burn for what I say, I'll do it, but some other day¡­   And I'll go kicking and screaming, all the way      Wednesday's child is full of woe   Strap on a weapon and he's ready to roll   Wind him up and watch him go   From the spit in his teeth to the gum on his sole      He's in the circle   Circle of the rings      If at first you don't succeed   Do it till you're sore re and your fingers bleed   Flesh grows stronger, turns to steel   It does not fear what it does not feel      No one takes the circle away   We have come, come to play      With luck in his eyes the magic man   Holds the ace in the palm of his hand   With dusk till dawn at his command   He blows his winnings like nobody can      He's in the circle   Circle of the rings      That man he holds a steady eye   Sinks the eight ball every time   He never runs and he never shouts   And he never gonna tell you what he's thinking about      No one takes the circle away   We have come, come to play
