Vitas's 2002 Kremlin concert

Everyone is happy and cheerful midgets
Are blowing up balloons.
And petards explode like firework,
The circus has arrived and everyone is smiling.
We are all spectators in this circus,
We are all animals and tamers
And everything is deadly familiar,
'Cos we are in this circus as if we are at home.
Everything is simple and very mysterious here
And the clown laughs like crazy,
Because of gymnast's fall,
Who wanted to make a somersault for us?
All of us are gathered here not accidentally.
And it's not a big secret
That we are all clowns in this circus,
And the gymnast's feet are broken.
We all grew up in this circus
And a single thought occurred to us
Is that everyone thinks about the same -
How not to become an elephant in this circus.
But on the other hand everyone wants to become magicians
And they are screaming and waving their flags,
But they are ordinary spectators -
Just station keepers,
Acrobats and sword-swallows,
Tightrope walkers and snake charmers,
High-wire artists and strong men,
Dwarfs and stuntmen.
Everything is relatively in this circus
And we are laughing not expressively
'Cos we are anxious for not to be left on a side of a road.
