Manfred Mann - Ha! Ha! Said The Clown

Chorus Ha ha said the clown Has the king lost his crown, Is the night being tight on romance Ha ha said the clown Is it bringing you down, That you've lost your chance Feeling low, gotta go See a show in town Hear the jokes, have a smoke, And a laugh at the clown In a whirl, see a girl With a smile in her eyes Never thought I'd be brought Right down by her lies Chorus In a trance, watch her dance To the beat of the drums Faster now, sweating brow, I'm all the fingers and thumbs Wonder why I hit the sky When she blows me a kiss In a while run a mile I'm regretting all this Chorus Time to go, close the show, Wave the people good-bye Grab my coat, grab my hat, Look that girl in the eye Where's your home, What's your phone number Stop fooling round Could have died she replied "I'm the wife of the clown" Chorus
