A thousand voices are a-cheering
A shout flies over town
Next on stage is the appearing
Of the world famed clown
Look there he's walking
In his famous style
Look there he's laughing
With his famous smile
A million lights are shinig brightly
Countless eyes are forced to see
Only clowns dare to show lightly
Dreams in spite of misery
Look there he's walking
In his famous style
Look there he's laughing
With his famous smile
If you try to be the way you are
You'll see them all stare at you
And they ask with a grin
If you are afraid
Or if you are insane
If you play a game
That no one understands
We're the clowns to hide our frowns
To make you gay in any way
When the daily show is over
A man walks off the stage
Dressed up with a grey pullover
No make-up hides his age
Look he is crying
Where's his famous smile
Look he is staggering
Where's his famous style
A shout flies over town
Next on stage is the appearing
Of the world famed clown
Look there he's walking
In his famous style
Look there he's laughing
With his famous smile
A million lights are shinig brightly
Countless eyes are forced to see
Only clowns dare to show lightly
Dreams in spite of misery
Look there he's walking
In his famous style
Look there he's laughing
With his famous smile
If you try to be the way you are
You'll see them all stare at you
And they ask with a grin
If you are afraid
Or if you are insane
If you play a game
That no one understands
We're the clowns to hide our frowns
To make you gay in any way
When the daily show is over
A man walks off the stage
Dressed up with a grey pullover
No make-up hides his age
Look he is crying
Where's his famous smile
Look he is staggering
Where's his famous style
