The funny man in Keaton's cloak
Painted smile and strung out jokes
Dim the lights, good evening folks
Laugh at the clown
Have you heared the one about
Watch the faces, constant doubt
'Till the words come tumbling out
Laugh at the clown
Goodnight strangers
Waitin' for the man to show
Applause, applause
Don't even know me
That's the way the story goes
The dealer leaves you ten per cent
Take the money, pays the rent
Wonder where the circus went
Laugh at the clown
Goodnight strangers
Waitin' for the man to show
Applause, applause
Don't even know me
That's the way the story goes
Hungry hands and silent eyes
Reach behind this fool's disguise
A little truth through all the lies
Laugh at the clown
Painted smile and strung out jokes
Dim the lights, good evening folks
Laugh at the clown
Have you heared the one about
Watch the faces, constant doubt
'Till the words come tumbling out
Laugh at the clown
Goodnight strangers
Waitin' for the man to show
Applause, applause
Don't even know me
That's the way the story goes
The dealer leaves you ten per cent
Take the money, pays the rent
Wonder where the circus went
Laugh at the clown
Goodnight strangers
Waitin' for the man to show
Applause, applause
Don't even know me
That's the way the story goes
Hungry hands and silent eyes
Reach behind this fool's disguise
A little truth through all the lies
Laugh at the clown
