[Intro] [Verse 1] Everybody laughs at the clown when he falls down People just smile and clap their hands together I don’t have a big red nose or wear his funny clothes But everybody knows The biggest clown in all the world is me [Verse 2] Everybody knows how it feels when someone steals More that your heart could ever hope to treasure Since he left to go his wayI hear both night and day The things that people say The biggest clown in all the world is me [Chorus] I guess the show’s underway I hear the orchestra start to blare And it’s time for the clowns to open the show How it hurts when they cheer every crocodile tear They just don’t know [Verse 3] When there’s nothing left you can saveyou’ve got to be brave Walk with your head held high and looking forward It’s not working very wellas anyone can tell I guess I know as well The biggest clown in all the world is me [Chorus] I guess the show’s underway I hear the orchestra start to blare And it’s time for the clowns to open the show How it hurts when they cheer every crocodile tear They just don’t know [Chorus] I guess the show’s underway I hear the orchestra start to blare And it’s time for the clowns to open the show How it hurts when they cheer every crocodile tear They just don’t know
