Clowns
Verse 1
Painted faces
Cheeky grins
Big red noses
Hide sorrow within

Children laugh
Parents smile
A funny distraction
For a while

We all wear masks
Of grease paint in colour
A glossy exterior
False face of another

The clowns van
Is a lonely place
Faded pictures
Of bygone days

His thick makeup
Hides the lines
Of 1000 shows
In a 1000 towns
Chorus
We all wear masks
Of grease paint in colour
A glossy exterior
False face of another
Verse 5
As crowds gather
Expectations grow
Spare a thought
Sadness never shows
Verse 6
The clowns face
Masks the tears
The clowns face
Masks the fears
Chorus
We all wear masks
Of grease paint in colour
A glossy exterior
False face of another
Verse 7
The clowns face
Masks the tears
The clowns face
Masks the fears
Chorus
We all wear masks
Of grease paint in colour
A glossy exterior
False face of another
