isnβt it rich?
are we a pair?
me, here at last on the groundβ¦
you in midairβ¦
send in the clownsβ¦
isnβt it bliss?
donβt you approve?
one who keeps tearing aroundβ¦
one who canβt moveβ¦
but where are the clowns?
send in the clownsβ¦
just when i stoppedβ¦
opening doorsβ¦
finally finding the one that i wanted was yours
making my entrance again with my usual flairβ¦
sure of my linesβ¦
no one was thereβ¦
donβt you love farce?
my fault i fearβ¦
i thought that youβd what i wantβ¦
sorry my dearβ¦
but where are the clowns?
there oughta be clownsβ¦
well maybe next yearβ¦
isnβt it rich?
isnβt it queer?
losing my timing this late in my careerβ¦
but where are the clowns?
there oughta be clownsβ¦
donβt bother, theyβre hereβ¦
