The clown
He was just a clown in white and in red He was just a clown, but now he is dead He laughed and jumped in the bright yellow light But under that smile was a sad face The memory remains about the clown with his smile He gave everything until the last day No one knew the pain of his silent sorrow Because in the end there was no one he left He lived alone, in a caravan from wood He was just a clown, his whole life His hat was too small and his shoes were too big He was just a clown, but now he is dead The memory remains about the clown with his smile He gave everything until the last day No one knew the pain of his silent sorrow Because in the end there was no one he left He fell on a evening, just like every time The audience laughed loud, but for him it was over He was just a clown, in white and in red He was just a clown, but now he is dead The memory remains about the clown with his smile He gave everything until the last day No one knew the pain of his silent sorrow Because in the end there was no one he left The memory remains about the clown with his smile He gave everything until the last day No one knew the pain of his silent sorrow Because in the end there was no one he left
De Clown
Refrein: Hij was maar een clown In 't wit en in 't rood Hij was maar een clown Maar nu is hij dood. Hij lachte en sprong In 't fel gele licht Maar onder die lach Zat een droevig gezicht. Refrein 2: De herinnering blijft Aan die clown met z'n lach Hij heeft alles gegeven Tot de laatste dag. Refrein 3: Niemand kende de pijn Van z'n stille verdriet Want er was op het einde Niemand die hij verliet. Hij woonde alleen In een wagen van hout Hij was maar een clown En zo werd hij oud. Z'n hoed was te klein En z'n schoenen te groot Hij was maar een clown Maar nu is hij dood. Op een avond, hij viel Net als elke keer Het publiek lachte luid Maar voor hem was het uit. Refrein. Refrein 2. Refrein 3.
