Lyrics:

Standing on the side of the road
Near the overpass
With a sign around his neck that says
'Car wash, free balloons'
He's a clown in broad daylight

He's waving at the people in cars
Who do a double take and goad him on with their horns
Outside the car wash like a cartoon
He's a clown in broad daylight

Raising eyebrows and emotions
He don't phase some people at all
For everyday the circus is open
Everything is alright
He's just a clown in broad daylight

Everything is alright
For against the backdrop
Of ordinary life, it's the easy laugh
That gets you through your working day and the hogwash
Sad but true
He's a clown in broad daylight

Yeah, he's waving at you
He's a clown
A clown in broad daylight
