Tears of a Clown

Smokey Robinson & The Miracles

Oh yeah baby

Now if there's a smile on my face,
it's only there tryin' to fool the public,
but when it comes down to foolin' you;
Honey, that's quite a different subject.

But don't let my glad expression
give you the wrong impression.
Really I'm sad.
I'm sadder than sad.
You're gone and I'm hurtin' so bad.
Like a clown I pretend to be glad.

Now there's some sad things known to man,
but ain't too much sadder than
the tears of a clown
when there's no one around.

Oh yeah baby

Now if I appear to be carefree,
it's only to camouflage my sadness.
In order to keep my pride I try
to cover the hurt with a show of gladness.

But don't let my glad expression
give you the wrong impression.
Really I'm sad.
I'm sadder than sad.
You're gone and I'm hurtin' so bad.
Like a clown I pretend to be glad.

Now there's some sad things known to man,
but ain't too much sadder than
the tears of a clown
when there's no one around.

Cut and paste entire sections to suit
your needs.  notice how the sax melody even when done relatively well
still make the music sound evermore cheesy.

i was trying to prove a point.  FunkySiva1@aol.com
