(Tony Hazzard)

Chorus
Ha ha said the clown
Has the king lost his crown,
Is the knight being tight on romance?
Ha ha said the clown,
Is it bringing you down,
That you've lost your chance

Feeling low, gotta go,
See a show in town
Hear the jokes, have a smoke,
And a laugh at the clown
In a whirl, see a girl,
With a smile in her eyes
Never thought I'd be brought,
Right down by her lies

Chorus

In a trance, watch her dance,
To the beat of the drums
Faster now, sweating brow,
I'm all the fingers and thumbs
Wonder why I hit the sky,
When she blows me a kiss
In a while run a mile,
I'm regretting all this

Chorus

Time to go, close the show,
Wave the people good-bye
Grab my coat, grab my hat,
Look that girl in the eye
Where's your home?
What's your phone number?
Stop fooling round
Could have died she replied
"I'm the wife of the clown"

Chorus
