Here I come The king of clowns As I hide behind this smile and paint the town Though I cry Since you're gone You'll never know because the show must go on
I've been sad (I've been sad) I've been blue (I've been blue) Ever since the day that you found someone new (someone new) I pretend but you can't tell With my broken heart I play my part so well
Step aside Here I come The king of clowns As I hide the lonely teardrops that come down I make believe with a smile But the king of clowns is crying all the while
Here comes the king of clowns
Here comes the king of clowns
There are tears (there are tears) You'll never see (never see) No, you'll never see my tears and pity me (pity me) Though I'm hurt Still I'm proud Always laughing as I walk among the crowd
Step aside Here I come The king of clowns As I hide the lonely teardrops that come down I make believe with a smile But the king of clowns is crying all the while
