Clown Song

If I joined the circus I would be a clown
I would, if I could
I'd wear a ragged coat with patches all around
I would, if I could
I'd paint my cheeks with bright red rosy polka dots
And wear a purple bow tie with a giant knot
I'd flop around with flattened shoes upon my feet
I would, if I could
Then suddenly trip and land right on my padded seat
I would, if I could

Ooh- Eee- Makin' funny faces,
People leave their places, Straining to see
Ooh- Eee- Everyone would love me,
Though my clothes were baggy
And my hair was messy

I'd grin and make a flower magically appear
I would, if I could
And as I watched it wilt I'd shed a mournful tear
I would, if I could
Then I'd spin around and skip across the ring
And imitate the way the monkeys jump and swing
I'd juggle ridin' on a pony just for fun
I would, if I could
I'd use a dozen balls and never drop a one
I would, if I could

Ooh- Eee- Makin' funny faces,
People leave their places, Straining to see
Ooh- Eee- Everyone would love me,
Though my clothes were baggy
And my hair was messy

If I joined the circus I would be a clown
I would, if I could,
And I could, if I would.
