He is only a clown, in the old fashioned way
And every night he has to paint his face again
He's hiding the age, with a smile on his face
In red and blue, for only you
He plays the game

Day by day, he'll let your body swayin'
In a way, you never did before

Then he will sing little songs, sing along and dance the night away
While he's so lonesome, alone, all alone that he could die
And then he'll sing little songs, sing along you love him more and more
While he's so lonesome, alone, all alone that he could die
In red and blue, he'll sing a song for you

(Voila, ha ha)

At the end of the show
When we all have to go
There's no more red no blue
The lights are low

Day by day, he'll let your body swayin'
In a way, you never did before

Then he will sing little songs, sing along and dance the night away
While he's so lonesome, alone, all alone that he could die
And then he'll sing little songs, sing along you love him more and more
While he's so lonesome, alone, all alone that he could die

Then he will sing little songs, sing along and dance the night away
While he's so lonesome, alone, all alone that he could die
And then he'll sing little songs, sing along you love him more and more
While he's so lonesome, alone, all alone that he could die
In red and blue, he'll sing a song for you
