birthday party clown - raspberry pie lyrics

Loading...

i started out with a license to mime
from a school in france, but in a matter of time
measured out in minutes, i had to give it up
right then and there
n0body wanted to pay to see
a man in a beret and a striped tee
push against the wind, pull a rope, or begin
to sit in an invisible chair

the only smile in a sea of frowns
and indifferent expressions, it’s so easy to drown
with size 35 shoes pulling you down
every single day
you’re a birthday party clown

sat-rday morning at eight fifteen
got a paying gig down at the chuckie cheese
somebody’s turning three, and it’s up to me
to keep them occupied
while all the parents in the room can breathe
a sigh of relief as they quietly leave
their kids with the buffoon and his animal balloons
while they grab a slice of pizza and sneak outside

the only smile in a sea of frowns
and indifferent expressions, it’s so easy to drown
with size 35 shoes pulling you down
every single day
you’re a birthday party clown

can’t imagine why the kids would run and cry
at the sight of a man in a pink suit
with a roll up tie, a pair of googely eyes
red nose, and a fright wig hairdo

from children’s parties to corporate events
from the tears and the jeers to my unpaid rent
there’s something that i’m missing
that always leaves me wishing
i could go back to school and become a magican

the only smile in a sea of frowns
and indifferent expressions, it’s so easy to drown
with size 35 shoes pulling you down
every single day
you’re a birthday party clown
