Background Info
Written by Michael Sembello, MJ originally recorded this song for his 1982 album, Thriller, but failed to make the final track listing when "Human Nature" was chosen instead.

It's also known as 'Circus Girl'.

It was unreleased until October 2001, when an edited version was added to the expanded, special edition of the Thriller album as one of the three bonus tracks.

Full version by Michael can be found on the Italian Edition of the "King Of pop - Best Of Album" released in october 2008.

The Lyrics
She's from a world
Of popcorn and candy
Pony rides for a dime
Little children laughing

I'm from a world
Of disapointments and confusions
But I want her to be mine
I started talking
She kept on walking
She disappeared into the crowd

I lost my heart
On the carousel
To a circus girl
Who left my heart in pieces
Lost my heart
On The carousel
To a circus girl
Who ran away.

I was the clown
And she was the dancer
We both knew it wouldn't work
But we took our chances
What I can't recall
Is if there was a girl at all
Or was it my imagination?
I still remember
All of those faces
And now all I have is memories.

I lost my heart
On the carousel
To a circus girl
Who left my heart in pieces
Lost my heart
On The carousel
To a circus girl
Who ran away.

Two different people
In love for an instant
To see that the circus came today
Sometimes I can hear her crying here
And I can hear her calling me.

Don't you know?
I lost my heart
On the carousel
To a circus girl
Who left my heart in pieces
Lost my heart
On The carousel
To a circus girl
Who ran away

The Next Morning
Michael was the first one to wake up. He turned and looked at Janelle, who was still asleep. He looked at the table clock and saw that it was almost 11am. He turned back to Janelle and tapped her on the shoulder.
"Janelle? Hey Janelle, it's time to wake up." He whispered.
She moved slightly, but didn't wake up. Michael got out of the bed carefully and stretched and went over to Janelle's side. He put his hand on her shoulder and shook her a little.
"Janelle? Wake up, Janelle. It's 11am."
She still wouldn't wake up. He leaned down and kissed her cheek and she woke up.
"AH!" She screamed...

I asked as he chuckled "I'm coming over today." He whispered as I looked at the phone like: The fuck.

I looked around the warehouse. It was spacious and big with a broken windows and broken glass on door. There were rats scattering around the corners and nibbling on dead rats and squeaking. I looked up at one of the guys "My name's Carmine." He said as he took his knife and softly caressed my cheek again , I looked the other way while he grabbed my face "Don't be such a bitch. I might cut off your pretty face." He pushed my head back while his assistant , brung a bucket of water "Here you go." He said as he gave Carmine the bucket. He dumped the water on me then untied me from the chair and...

I woke and Michael still sleep. I decided to get an early start on my day , so I cooked an omelet and made Jamaican tea. I sat at the table and read the newspaper , nothing surprising going on. Isis was up "Morning , Nesha." She said , her voice sounding like a man's "Good morning , auntie." I said , my voice sounding like hers. Michael walked in the bathroom while I was walking to the room , he was naked. I walked backwards to see if this was true , it was. He was so hot and.....God , that ass "Michael , Isis is still here." I whispered as he snatched a towel on. I giggled , he was so cute...

Fancy

Michael took out a ring and placed it on my finger.
" Oh Michael! It's so beautiful."
He smiled. " So, will you marry me?"

I looked at the ring. It was a 250 carat gold ring with diamond crusted all around it. " Fancy" was engraved on the ring. It was so magical. I looked into his eyes and said " Yes."

Michael looked up at me. " Say what now?"

I nodded rapidly. " Yes Michael! Yes!"

Everyone cheered except Joe. " What?!?! Michael can't be marrying that girl!" Joe screamed.

Michael frowned. " Joseph, I love Fancy. She is my life. And if you can't except that, then you're not invited to the wedding!

I felt a tear gently slide down my face. Everyone was feeling sorry for me. " See, now you have Fancy crying!" LaToya scolded. Fancy, Janet and LaToya went to the wedding gown shop to shop for gowns and dresses.

Do you agree with Fancy's decision. If so/not, comment below!!! I'd love to hear your comments!
