Clown

Oh!
You’ve spoilt the milk!
Fuck off!
Come on!
(Come on)

I’ve seen you around town

With your neon-brown suede night shoes you like to wear so much

On the corner, wasn’t it?
I saw you there

Yes.

And I’ve seen many-a-flame throw backwards glances through ashtrays at cream coated cab-riders, sure.

Cried all night.

Barely making a sound
Eyes glued to the ground
Never really tried to turn a frown around
Or put it upside down
Until I found work

As a clown

Fuck!
Come on!
Havent got all day! (Ach)

I’ve seen you around town, with your neon-brown suede night shoes

WOAH!

Sure, they look nice (sueude)

I’ve wanted to be as close to the night as you are
Everyone on the fucking floor does

They all seen ya!

Fuck off.

Never really wanted to wear patchwork clothes
Never really wanted white face or red nose
Never have I tried to turn a frown around
Or put it upside down

CLOWN
I FOUND WORK AS A CLOWN
GOD IMPLIED I’M A CLOWN SO
I DRESSED UP LIKE A CLOWN
