Rodeo Clowns Lyrics - Philadelphonic - G. Love & Special Sauce

Sweeping the floors, open up the doors 

Turn on the lights, getting ready for tonight 

Nobody's romancing because it's too early for dancing 

But here comes the music 

Bright lights flashing to cover up your lack of soul 

Many people, so many problems, so many reasons 

To buy another round, drink it down 

Just another night on the town 

With the big man, money man, better than the other man 

He got the plan with the million dollar give a damn 

When nobody understands hell become a smaller man 

The bright lights keep flashing, the women keep on dancing 

With the clowns, they pick me up when I'm down 

The Rodeo Clowns, they pick me up when I'm down 

The disco ball spinning, all the music and the women 

The shots of Tequila, they'll say that they need ya 

But what they really need is just a little room to breath 

Teeny bopping disco queen, she barely understands 

Her dreams of bellybutton rings and other kinds of things 

Symbolic of change but the thing that is strange 

Is that the changes occurred, now she's just a part of the herd 

I thought that you heard, the changes occurred 

Just a part of the herd 

Lights out, shut down, late night, wet ground 

You walk by look at him but he can't look at you 

You might feel pity but he only feels the ground 

You understand moods but he only knows let down 

By the corner there's another one 

Reaching out a hand, coming from a broken man 

You try to live but he's done trying 

Not dead but definitely dying 

With the rest of the clowns 

Sweeping the floors, open up the doors 

Turn on the lights, getting ready for tonight 

Nobody's romancing because it's too early for dancing 

But here comes the music
