The Tears of a Clown
--------------------
 Smokey Robinson & The Miracles
Now if there's a smile on my face,
it's only there tryin' to fool the public,
but when it comes down to foolin' you;
Now honey, that's quite a different subject
I'm So Beautiful lyrics

Out
out tonight
feel like going out in the night

I'm gonna walk the street
walk the street

I wanna 
.
But don't let my glad expression
give you the wrong impression.
Really I'm sad.
I'm sadder than sad.
You're gone and I'm hurtin' so bad.
Like a clown I pretend to be glad.
(chorus)
Now there's some sad things known to man,
but ain't too much sadder than
the tears 
Bubble Pop Electric lyrics


Come on Johnny when you gonna get here?
Alright hold your pretty horses ill be there in a minute you just get yourself doll
of a clown
when there's no one around.
Now if I appear to be carefree,
it's only to camouflage my sadness.
In order to keep my pride I try
to cover the hurt with a show of gladness.
But don't let my show convince you
that I've been happy since you
decided to go.
Oh,
Reason Is Treason lyrics


Here come the morning that I say goodbye to ya
Here come the morning that'll say goodbye
but I dont turn around cause t
 I need you so.
I'm hurt and I want you to know.
(chorus)
Just like Pagliacci did,
I try to keep my sadness hid.
(aaargh! I can't remember!  It'll come to me and I'll send it along.)
But in my lonely room I cry
the tears of a clown
when there's no one around.
