Showclown

Ewald Pfleger

He wrote a song, he had been working on so long
He felt he had given his soul
But they said it's wrong, people won't like your song
It wouldn't be a hit on the radio

So he had to change his song
Mixin' Disco, a little bit Reagee and Soul
Big Bosses said to him: Boy, please understand
Don't make music that isn't in

Here comes the showclown, he's standing in the light
Here comes the showclown now, it seems, but he's not so bright

When he was young he played and sang
He dreaned about standing on stage
He wasn't afraid of a music, career
But the answer was on the next page
He didn't know the name of the music game
Success is the most important thing
After a while he lost his style, so far away from fame
Misled by a golden king

Here comes the showclown
He's standing in the light
Here comes the showclown now
It seems, but he's not so bright

After the show he wants to go
He feels like losing the soul
Disappears through the door he can't laugh anymore
He feels like losing it all

Here comes the showclown, he's standing in the light
Here goes the showclown now, he's standing alone in the night
Here goes the showclown
Here goes the showclown
