You know I care a lot
I gave you everything I got
The little that I have - yeah
Between the cigarettes and coke
I always find a joke
To make you smile
And sometimes when you are down
I will come around
To put your feet back on the ground - oh yeah

`cause you are in love with a clown
In love with a clown

Your mom is not my friend, she didn't like the band
But that's okay with me
And the money that I make, can't pay the china that I break
That's okay with me
And I always spill with wine,
I never come in time
I forget to wash my feet
But I give you what you need
Life is upside down

`cause you are in love with a clown
In love with a clown

I never promised you diamonds and pearls
`cause I would lose them somewhere in the town
You searched so hard for the men of your dreams
And what is what you found

The love of a clown...

And I always spill with wine,
I never come in time
I forget to wash my feet
But I give you what you need
Life is upside down

`cause you are in love with a clown
