Clown


Sitting here all alone
The place where I sit my home
The tears in my eyes bring joy
But I am falling

Out here no one knows
The face behind big red nose
A clown in a circus act
Just performing

The people laugh
The people smile
To the act that I made
To make all those children happy

The sound of the audience roar
And want another encore
They paid so they want more
With more applauding

Candy floss fills the air
As a lion sits on a chair
Why can’t I walk trapeze
It more rewarding

Not long to go
To end the show
And the fat man throws a pie
To wipe the tear from my eye.
