Lyrics

There's a circus in town and in the spotlight tonight I'm gonna fall to the ground without a sound Like a bird in a cage, you'll remember my face A sad-eyed, sad-eyed rock and roll clown So strike up the band for this tiny man Here I am, a rock and roll clown Oh, look at me, my friends Here I am, a rock and roll clown And here we go again I can play my guitar like a su-superstar Without any strings like all the rip-pippin' kings I have a fan magazine in my washing machine And my heart never breaks 'cause my nose is a fake Oh, in the spotlight tonight I'm gonna fly like a kite Here I am, a rock and roll clown Oh, look at me, my friends Here I am, a rock and roll clown And here we go again Black and white isn't always right There's always something between the lines At the end of the scene the stage can be such a lonely place When you're all by your own To be or not to be, that's the question What's the name of the game, am I climbing to fame? Or is this just a joke with a joker who's broke? When the curtain is down and the circus leaves town There is no one around to see the sad-eyed clown But strike up the band for this tiny man Here I am, a rock and roll clown Oh, look at me, my friends Here I am, a rock and roll clown And here we go again Here I am, a rock and roll clown And here we go again
