Clown Lyrics - Hollies

(Clarke / Hicks / Nash) 

I see a clown painting his face once more 

Before the show has started 

He paints a smile on his face with his makeup now 

Although he's broken hearted 

But the rule of the clown is simple 

And the show must go on as always 

People are there to laugh at him 

And he mustn't let them down 

He's lost someone dear to him 

And he's crying now although he doesn't show it 

He gives the show of his life though he's breaking down 

Although you'd never know it

But there's something different about his smile 

An unfamiliar frown 

Yes there's something different about him now 

He's painted his smile on upside down
