paroles de chanson The Tears of a Clown - The Beat

Said, oh yeah, baby, baby
Now if there's a smile on my face
It's only there trying to fool the public
But when it comes down to fooling you
Well now, honey, that's quite a different subject

So don't let my glad expression
Give you the wrong impression
'Cause really, I'm sad (so sad)
Oh, I'm sadder than sad
Look, I'm hurting, I want you so bad
Like a clown I appear to be glad

Ooh, yeah, now there's some sad things known to man
But ain't too much sadder than
The tears of a clown
When there's no one around
Said, oh yeah, baby, baby, baby
Oh, yeah, baby, baby, baby

Now if I appear to be carefree
It's only to camouflage my sadness
In order to shield my pride, I've tried
To cover this 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, I need you so
Look, I'm hurt and I want you to know
Just for others I put on a show

Ooh, ooh, yeah, there's some sad things known to man
But there ain't too much sadder than
The tears of a clown
When there's no one around

So, just like Pagliacci did
I'm gonna keep my sadness hid
Smiling in the public eye
But in this lonely room, I cry
The tears of a clown
When there's no one around

Now if there's a smile on my face
Well, don't let my glad expression
Give you the wrong impression
Don't let this smile I wear
Make you feel that I don't care

The tears of a clown, tears of a clown
The tears of a clown, the tears a clown
The tears of a clown (I'm going downtown)
The tears of a clown (I'm going downtown)
The tears of a clown
The tears of a clown, tears of a clown
