Tears Of A Clown (Demo)

Now if there's a smile upon my face
It's only there tryna fool the public
But when it comes down to fooling you
Now honey that's a different subject
But don't let my glad expression
Go on and give you the wrong impression, 'cause really I'm sad

Ooh, I'm sadder than sad, you're gone, and I'm hurting so bad
Like a clown, I pretend to be glad

Now there's some sad things known to man
Ain't too much sadder than
The tears of a clown when there's no one around

Now if I appear to be carefree
It's only there just to hide sadness
In order to shield my pride
I try to cover this hurt with a show of gladness
But don't let my show convince you
That I've been happy ever since you decided to go

Ooh, I need you so, I'm hurt, and I want you to know
But for others I put on a show

Now there's some sad things known to man
And too much sadder than
The tears of a clown when there's no one around

Just like Pagliacci did
I try to keep my sadness hid
Smiling in the public eye
But in my lonely room, oh, I cry
The tears of a clown

Now if there's a smile upon my face
It's only there just to fool the public
But when it comes down to fooling you
Ooh, baby, that's a different subject
So don't let my glad expression
Go on and give you the wrong impression, 'cause really I'm sad

I'm sadder than sad, you're gone, and I'm hurting so bad
Like a clown, I pretend to be glad, yeah

Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-yeah
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
