Just in time— to catch the show you‘ve already paid for
Just in time
The spectacle’s about to begin
And everyone‘s here that matters there‘s one little hitch
Hope you forgive
The chattering monkeys, they broke in
Creating some damage
It‘s really most unfortunate when they try to ruin perfection
And we‘ve got highly trained young men
To guarantee protection
To hell with all formalities, l?t‘s toast to mediocrity
‘Cause we’r? the ones who safeguard
All the keys to the palace
To better times, to better times, to better times (X4)
Just in time— the aliens are about to invade us
Time to ride
The freaks are forming their own brigade
But I don’t know why they’re trying
They promise a splendid big parade
That we find terrifying
Those chattering monkeys want to steal
The spotlight from the circus
But if you don‘t mind please ignore them
They really have no purpose
To hell with all formalities, let‘s drink to mediocrity
‘Cause we’re the ones who are holding
All the keys to the palace
It‘s time to take the circus down
And burn the palace to the ground
Take back the keys from the clowns
And raise your glass and toast the little monkeys
To better times, to better times, to better times (X4)

Tra i suoi brani più rappresentativi figurano "This Is Halloween" da The Nightmare Before Christmas, "The Simpsons Theme" (per la serie animata) e "Main Title" da Batman.
