A Clown Always Smiles

Get on with the show
Hey, we ain't got all day
We've got important things to do
So get out of the way
While we're still young...
And any day ...
I really don't mean to rush you
But my hair's gone gray now
And even though deep down inside I want to cry
And that I'm tired of my life's relentless trials
Somehow I'll find the will to give it one more try
Because a clown
A clown always smiles
Excuse me, could you do me a favor?
I mean, that is if you don't mind
But could you pick up the pace a little bit
'cause you're fallin' behind
Why good morning, so glad you could join us...
And grace us with your presence again...
And if there's anything that you need
Just let me know where and when...
And even though deep down inside I want to cry
And that I'm tired of my life's relentless trials
Somehow I'll find the will to give it one more try
Because a clown
A clown always smiles
Because a clown
A clown always smiles (yeah, always smiles)
Because a clown
A clown always smiles

On The Other Side
03:22

It seemed like fun, for the moment
And that all of the cool kids are doin' it now
You feel like your life is goin' nowhere fast
And that you have to break outta this cage somehow
Looks like you've gone too far this time
And that you bit off more than you could chew
But before you go off into oblivion
Hold onto my hand
just for a few
You gotta believe you're gonna make it back through
I'll be waitin' on the other side for you
Start gettin' the feelin' that it ain't alright
When you can't tell what's up from down
It looks like day, but it's late at night
As you start to stumble down through the town
I guess you've gone too far this time
And that you bit off more than you could chew
But before you go off into oblivion
Hold onto my hand
just for a few
You gotta believe you're gonna make it back through
Oh I'll be waitin' on the other side for you
I'll be waitin' on the other side for you
Oh I'll be waitin' on the other side for you
Yeah I'll be be on the other side waitin' for you

An Angel Standing There
03:55

From the first moment that I saw your smile
There was nothing that I could need
There was nothing that I could want
You turned the key and I was freed
From the first time I saw you standing there
Knew I had found true love at last
Something inside me changed
And everything was rearranged
I knew all of my lonely days were in the past
Now I believe that miracles can happen
Down in my darkest hour of despair
Yeah you came right out of nowhere
And appeared just like an angel standing there
I want to love you with all of my heart
Please tell me that you’ll always stay
Until the end of time
Tell me that you’re never gonna go away
Feels like a dream but I am wide awake
I can’t believe you fell for me
Everything is falling into place
Ever since I saw your face
And for the first time in my life I can see
Oh I can see
That miracles can happen
Down in my darkest hour of despair
Yeah you came right out of nowhere
And appeared just like an angel standing there
Now I believe that miracles can happen
Down in my darkest hour of despair
You came right out of nowhere
And appeared just like an angel standing there
And you appeared just like an angel standing there
You appeared just like an angel standing there
You appeared just like an angel standing there

Stupid On Parade

Right off into hell in a handbag
Like a bunch of faithful programmed drones
Yeah, you do as you're told, 'cause your soul has been sold
You're all cookie-cutter carbon-copy clones
You brag about your freedom of speech
But it's already drifted far outta reach
You say you've got the God-given right
But when they call you up, you're nowhere in sight
Repeat the lie over and over
'Til you start to believe it's the truth
Your hypocrisy is so astounding
Stupid in the votin' booth
Vote for me and I'll set you free
To roam around in the cattle chute
Like lambs to the slaughter, they deposit a quarter
While dancin' to the piper's flute
Now, if Jimmy Johnson jumped off the Brooklyn Bridge
Does that mean you would jump off too?
The blind lead the blind right into a cage
You're just a monkey sittin' there in a zoo
Sis boom bah, rah, rah, rah
Scalp 'em, beat 'em, step on their heads
Whadda we want? (stupid!)
When do we want it? (now!)
Get back on your meds
You empty heads
Dreamin' of schemin'
as their snorin' asleep in their beds

U Mad Bro?

Politician says hey, hands up, give us all your money
They squeezed out every dime they could find
Then when the shit hit the fan, they took the money and ran
Smiling as they robbed you blind
Yeah they were smiling as they robbed you blind
Preacher says to do unto others
as you would like them to do unto you
But they never gave a penny to my collection basket
When I was down & out in the valley of the blue
When I was down & out in the valley of the blue
And they say hey bro, yo, whatsa matter you mad?
And I say yeah, that shit bother me really bad
They say hey bro, yo, whatsa matter you mad?
And I say yeah, that shit bother me really bad
I say yeah, that shit bother me really bad
Anchorman reads from his prompter
spouting biased and dumbed down lies
Yeah it's freedom of the press to say whatever you want
Don't tell the truth, just deceive and disguise
Don't tell the truth, just deceive and disguise
High up there at his desk in his robe and his wig
sits the honorable Judge Marionette
And everyone's guilty in his kangaroo court
So go see the clerk right now and pay off your debt
Go see the clerk right now and pay off your debt
And they say hey bro, yo, whatsa matter you mad?
And I say yeah, that shit bother me really bad
Yeah they say hey bro, yo, whatsa matter you mad?
And I say yeah, that shit bother me really bad
I say yeah, that shit bother me really bad
The doctor gets trashed as he's wined and dined
by drug dealers with a license to kill
ooooo, I'm sorry that's not covered by your policy
So just shut up and take your placebo pill
Just shut up and take your placebo pill
Stock broker plays around with your money
Until it's time to call in that little risk
And when the bottom falls out of his haunted house of cards
You're left with nothing, boo hoo, tisk tisk
You're left with nothing, boo hoo, tisk tisk...
And they say yo bro, whatsa matter you mad?
And I say yeah, that shit bother me really bad
They say yo bro, whatsa matter you mad?
And I say yeah, that shit bother me really bad
I say yeah, that shit bother me really bad
I say yeah, that shit bother me really bad
I say yeah, that shit bother me really bad
I say yeah, that shit bother me really bad

Wish There Was A Way

Oh my God, here comes that girl again
I don't know why she makes me lose my mind...
And I've been fallin' for her since way back when
'Cause she's the kind of girl I thought I'd never find
Oh when she walks by, my heart starts breakin'
My brain goes blank, and I can't stop shakin'
And I can't speak 'cause my breath gets taken away
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I wish there was a way to let her know that
I, I, I, I, i
I lie awake every night and I cry
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm so afraid to let my feelings show
I, I, I, I, i
I wonder why it feels like I could die
I tried to call her, but I lost my nerve
'Cause I'm just one in a million guys
Oh, what did I ever do to deserve
Bein' next to nothin' in her eyes?
Oh when she walks by, my heart starts breakin'
My brain goes blank, and I can't stop shakin'
And I can't speak 'cause my breath gets taken away
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I wish there was a way to let her know that
I, I, I, I, i
I lie awake every night and I cry
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I'm so afraid to let my feelings show
I, I, I, I, i
I wonder why it feels like I could die
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh you can try to change and re-arrange things all around
But at the end of the day, everything stays the same
There's no one to blame, hey whatever bro
It don't matter to me
So giddy up, yo
Get on with the show
You can make a big fuss if you really must
But in the long run it's the beaten path
It's gonna work itself out
You're gonna look back at it all and just laugh
It don't matter to me
So giddy up, yo
Get on with the show
Now where was I?
I think I must've went off into a day dream
It seems to happen all of the time
But that's all right with me
It don't matter to me
So giddy up, yo
Get on with the show
Get on with the show
Get on with the show
Get on with the show

I Might Come Back Again
03:03
|

I hear you knockin' on my door,
but I don't live here anymore
Seems I've moved very far from here
Fell off of the Earth and I disappeared
I'm sorry, no one's home, come back on another day
It appears there's no one here, so leave a message and go away
Maybe some day I might come back again
after the smoke has all cleared away
Is this the beginning or is this the end?
Guess time will tell us where the cards will lay
I see you peepin' through the blind
for some meaning that you hope to find
Searchin' for clues and lookin' for a sign
Should I snap my fingers and make the sun begin to shine?
I'm sorry, no one's home, come back on another day
It appears there's no one here, so leave a message and go away
Maybe some day I might come back again
after the smoke has all cleared away
Is this the beginning or is this the end?
Guess time will tell us where the cards will lay
