My is dry and it clags on my chin I'm drowning my sorrows in whisky and gin The lion tamer's whip doesn't crack anymore The lions they fight and the tigers won't roar
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la So let's all drink the death of a clown Won't help me to break up this crowd Let's all drink the death of a clown
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la Let's all drink to the death of a clown
The old fortune teller lies dead on floor Nobody needs fortunes told anymore The trainer of is crouched on his knees And frantically looking for runaway fleas
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la Let's all to the death of a clown So won't someone me to break up this crowd Let's all drink to the death of a clown
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la Let's all to the death of a clown
