Everybody loves a clown, so why don't you?   Everybody laughs at the things I say and do   They all laugh when they see me comin'      But you don't laugh, you just go home runnin'   Everybody loves a clown, so why can't you?   A clown has feelings, too      I joke around at a party when you are there   But you don't laugh, you don't look, you just don't care   If you wonder why this clown is cryin'      Look a little closer, inside I'm dyin'   It's not easy to be in love, you see   When you're a clown like me'      I don't know how to say that I love you   'Cause you would smile and say, "Tell a joke or two"   Yes, I'm a clown but I don't wanna be      Why can'tcha see the other side of me?   Guess I'll be the guy who plays the part   Of a clown with a broken heart      Dreamin' of your love and not knowin' where to start   Dreamin' of your love and not knowin' where to start   Dreamin' of your love and not knowin' where to start   Dreamin' of your love and not knowin' where to start
