Clown (Remastered) - The Hollies

I see a clown painting his face once more

Before the show has started

He paints a smile on his face with his makeup now

Although he's broken hearted

But the rule of the clown is simple

And the show must go on as always

People are there to laugh at him

And he mustn't let them down

He's lost someone dear to him

And he's crying now although he doesn't show it

He gives the show of his life though he's breaking down

Although you'd never know it

But there's something different about his smile

An unfamiliar frown

Yes there's something different about him now

He's painted his smile on upside down
