Be a clown
Be a clown
All the world loves a clown
Show 'em tricks, tell 'em jokes
And you'll only stop with top folks
Dress in huge baggy pants
And you'll ride the road to romance
A butcher or a baker ladies never embrace
A barber for a beau would be a social disgrace
They all'll come to call if you can fall on your face
Be a clown, be a clown, be a clown!
Be a clown
Be a clown
All the world loves a clown
Be a crazy buffoon
And the 'demoiselles'll all swoon
Be a crack jackanapes
And they'll imitate you like apes
Why be a great composer with your rent in arrears
Why be a major poet and you'll owe it for years
When crowds'll pay to giggle if you wiggle your ears
Be a clown, be a clown, be a clown!
Be a clown,
Be a clown,
All the world loves a clown
Be the poor silly ass
And you'll always travel first class
Give 'em quips, give 'em fun
And they'll pay to say you're A-1
If you become a farmer you've the weather to buck
If you become a gambler you'll be stuck with your luck
But jack you'll never lack if you can quack like a duck
Be a clown, be a clown, be a clown!
Be a clown, be a clown, be a clown!
