Lyrics:

Even though she is gone
The show must go on
One clown cried, One clown cried
Oh he cried
Oh he cried
A circus clown for the world to see
A painted smile makes them laugh at me
Oh how I wish that they could see
Under all this paint is me
And there's no place I can hide

One clown cried, One clown cried
Oh he cried
Oh he cried

Spoken:
Make people laugh that's what I do
Even though my heart is broken
Broken in two

All the world will laugh As tears erase
My funny laughing face
Only she knows one clown cried

One clown cried
Oh he cried
Oh he cried
One clown cried, One clown cried
Oh he cried
Oh he cried
