>> Going to have a three
ring circus someday.
-
People will say it's
a fine one, son.
-
Going to have a three
ring circus someday.
-
People will come
for miles around.
-
Lions, tigers, acrobats,
-
and jugglers, and
clowns. Cool off.
-
Tight rope, walkers,
pony riders,
-
elephants, and
so much more.
-
Guess I got the idea
right here at school.
-
Felt like a fool when
they called my name.
-
Talking about
the government
-
and how it's arranged.
-
Divided in three
like a circus.
-
Ring 1, executive. Two is
-
legislative,
that's Congress.
-
Ring 3, judiciary.
-
See it's like my circus.
-
Circus. Step right up
and busy Ring number 1.
-
The show's just begun,
meet the president.
-
I am here to see that
the laws get done,
-
the ring master of
the government.
-
I lead the show.
-
Hurry to Ring number 2.
-
See what they do
in the Congress.
-
Passing laws and
juggling bills Oh,
-
it's quite a thrill
in my Congress.
-
Focus your attention
on Ring number 3.
-
The judiciary is
in the spotlight.
-
The courts take the laws,
-
and they tame the pride,
-
balancing the wrongs
with your rights.
-
No one part can
be more powerful
-
than any other is.
-
Each controls
the other, see.
-
That's what we call
checks and balances.
-
Well, everybody's act
is part of the show,
-
and no one's job
is more important.
-
The audience is like
the country you know.
-
Keeping an eye on
-
their performance.
Ring 1, executive.
-
Two is legislative.
-
That's Congress.
-
Ring 3, judiciary. See,
-
it's like my circus.
-
My circus. I'm going to
-
have a three ring
circus someday.
-
People will say, it's
a fine one, son.
-
But until I get it,
I'll do my thing.
-
With government, it's
got three rings.
