The saying Not My Circus Not My Monkeys is from an old Polish Proverb meaning "Not My Problem". While more cryptic than just saying “not my problem”, the Polish expression “not my circus, not my monkeys” makes perfect sense, and is a lot more fun to say. Poland can offer a traveller some difficulties in terms of cultural customs — holding your thumbs means good luck, not crossing your fingers, for example. You'll probably need a bit of luck, what with all those monkeys running around.

The idea of the circus is energy, confusion and novelty. You never quite know what to expect - that's why people go to the circus. When the monkeys are involved, especially if they get loose, there's a good deal of chaos as well. The meaning is similar to I'm not the ring master of this … disaster, mess, ball of confusion. The problems/ monkeys aren't from my show. I'm just watching - it's not my job to fix it. It's a different spin on a common attitude. ‘Don't try to repair what you don't own.'
