Song Lyrics

Here I come, the king of clowns
As I hide behind a 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 blue
Ever since the day that you found 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 cryin' all the while
Tra la la la la la lilo, tra la la la la la lilo
Here comes the king of clowns
Tra la la la la la lilo, tra la la la la la lilo
Here comes the king of clowns

There are tears you'll never see
No you'll never see my tears and pity me
Though I'm hurt, still I'm proud
Always laughin' 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 cryin' all the while
Tra la la la la la lilo, tra la la la la la lilo
Here comes the king of clowns
Tra la la la la la lilo, tra la la la la la lilo
Here comes the king of clowns

Tra la la la la la lilo, tra la la la la la lilo
Here comes the king of clowns
