The Clown Song Lyrics - Singles - Beccy Cole

They call me the clown 

I can juggle while Im spinning round 

Take all the dark clouds away 

With a well rehearsed display 

The spotlights on me 

And everybody wants the clown to be 

The one who laughs at the world 

They think Im their funny girl 

With a painted on smile 

And laughter like a shield 

When it hurts the most 

I make a joke to hide the way I feel 

Nobody wants you when youre down 

But everyone loves a clown 

I balance between 

The truth and what lies hidden up my sleeve 

And when it all gets too hard 

I just play the joker card 

Another curtain call 

Another routine where I did it all 

Every trick and surprise 

To keep my thin disguise 

A painted on smile 

And laughter like a shield 

When it hurts the most 

I make a joke to hide the way I feel 

Nobody wants you when youre down 

But everyone loves a clown 

Did you hear the one about the girl, 

Who hid inside her circus world? 

Now she wonders what its all for 

Coz its not funny anymore 

Painted on smile 

And laughter like a shield 

When it hurts the most 

I make a joke to hide the way I feel 

Nobody wants you when youre down 

But everyone loves a clown 

Everyone loves a clown
