There’s a smile on my face
It’s only there trying to fool the public
But when it comes down to fooling you
Now, honey, that’s quite a different subject
Don’t let my glad expression
Give you the wrong impression
‘Cause really I’m sad (sad song, sad, sad)
Sadder than sad (I feel so bad)
You’re gone, and I’m hurting so bad (I pretend to be glad)
Like a clown, I pretend to be glad (sad song, sad, sad)
There’s some sad things known to man
But there ain’t too much sadder than
The tears of a clown
When therе’s no one around
If I appear to be carеfree
It’s only to camouflage my sadness
In order to shield my pride, I tried
To cover this hurt as a show of gladness
But don’t let my show convince you
That I’ve been happy since you decided to go
Oh, I need you so (I need you so)
I’m hurt, and I want you to know (want you to know)
But for others I’ll put on a show (it’s just a show)
There’s some sad things known to man
But there ain’t too much sadder than the tears of a clown
When there’s no one around
Just like Pagliacci (the great pretender)
I try to keep my sadness hid
Smiling in the public eye (the great pretender)
But in my lonesome room I cry
The tears of a clown (tears of a clown)
The tears of a clown (tears of a clown)
The tears of a clown (tears of a clown)
The tears of a clown (tears of a clown)
The tears of a clown
Clown
The tears of a clown (tears of a clown)
The tears of a clown
The tears of a clown
