	Say oh yeah baby baby 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 So don't let my glad expression Give you the wrong impression Cos really I'm sad (so sad sad) Oh I'm sadder than sad (so sad sad) Well I'm hurt and I want you so bad (so sad sad) Like a clown I appear to be glad Ooh yeah 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 Say oh yeah baby baby baby Oh yeah baby baby baby Now if I appear to be carefree It's only to camouflage my sadness And honey to shield my pride I try To cover this hurt with a show of gladness So 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 yeah There's some sad things known to man But ain't too much sadder than The tears of a clown Just like Pagliacci did I'm gonna keep my surface hid Hiding in the room I try 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 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 I'm going down de town I'm going downtown Tears of a clown
