[00:00.00]Tears Of A Clown - The Monitors
[00:10.67]Oh yeah yeah
[00:14.23]Now if there's a smile upon my face
[00:17.97]It's only there trying to fool the public
[00:21.42]But when it comes down to fooling you
[00:25.11]Now honey that's quite a diffrent subject
[00:29.10]Don't let my glad expression
[00:33.06]Give you the wrong impression
[00:36.01]Cause really I'm sad
[00:39.51]Sadder than sad
[00:42.14]You're gone and I'm hurting so bad
[00:45.64]Like a clown I pretend to be glad
[00:50.97]Now there's some sad things known to man
[00:54.56]But ain't too much sadder than
[00:57.70]The tears of a clown
[01:00.87]When there's no one around
[01:09.00]Oh yeah baby
[01:12.55]Now if I appear to be carefree
[01:15.92]It's only to camouflage my sadness
[01:19.50]In order to shield my pride
[01:21.68]I try to cover this hurt with a show of gladness
[01:27.13]But Don't let my show convince you
[01:30.82]That I've been happy since you decided to go
[01:37.49]I need you so
[01:40.21]I'm hurt and I want you to know
[01:43.59]But for others I put on a show
[01:48.03]Now there's some sad things known to man
[01:52.54]But ain't too much sadder than
[01:55.81]The tears of a clown
[01:59.23]When there's no one around
[02:04.67]Just like Pagliacci did
[02:08.04]I try to keep my sadness hid
[02:11.35]Smiling in the public eye
[02:14.35]But in my lonely room I cry
[02:17.39]The tears of a clown
[02:20.77]When there's no one around
[02:25.02]Oh yeah baby
[02:28.45]Now if there's a smile on my face
[02:32.51]Don't let my glad expression
[02:36.41]Give you a wrong impression
[02:40.01]Don't let this smile I wear
[02:43.30]Make you think that I don't care
