Death of a Clown Lyrics

My makeup is dry and it cracks from my chin
I'm drowning my sorrows in whisky and gin
The lion tamer's whip doesn't crack anymore
The lions they won't fight and the tigers won't roar

La la la La
So let's all drink to the death of a clown
Won't someone help 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 drink to the death of a clown

The old fortune teller lies dead on the floor
Nobody needs fortunes told anymore
The trainer of insects is crouched on his knees
And virtually looking for runaway fleas

La l ala la la la la la la la
Let's all drink to the death of a clown
So won't someone help me to breakup this crowd
Let's all drink to the death of a clown
La la la la la la la la la la
