Abandon Your Town - Clown Lyrics

Hey you will you be my darling true
We can go to the carnival where I can play the clown
We can go play some darts maybe I can hit your heart
With my clown jokes and my tacky balloon art

But it seems my silly games are always wearing thin
Cause nice guys finish last and I'm way nicer than them

Now just to make you laugh
I'd fall right on my ass
It's a mirror image of what my life entails
I'll make some stupid joke before my emotions choke
Before I let you see the shape I'm in

But it seems my silly games are always wearing thin
Cause nice guys finish last and I'm way nicer than them

The reason I chose to clown is nothing that profound
I tried to fill the gap when my father passed
And just like any tortured mind I tried to hide what is confined
With a joke and a toke I let my life slip by
But it seems my silly games are always wearing thin
Cause nice guys finish last and I'm way nicer than them

I chose my knife
I chose my own life
Take it or leave it I'm a clown

So hey you will you be my darling true
We can go to the carnival and I'll can play the clown
