DO YOU LOVE ME,
Oh it's so funny to be seeing you after so long, girl.
And with the way you look I understand
that you were not impressed.
But I heard you let that little friend of mine
take off your party dress.
I'm not going to get too sentimental
like those other sticky valentines,
'cause I don't know if you've been loving some body.
I only know it isn't mine.
Alison, I know this world is killing you.
Oh, Alison, my aim is true.
Well I see you've got a husband now.
Did he leave your pretty fingers lying
in the wedding cake?
You used to hold him right in your hand.
I'll bet he took all he could take.
Sometimes I wish that I could stop you from talking
when I hear the silly things that you say.
I think somebody better put out the big light,
cause I can't stand to see you this way.
Alison, I know this world is killing you.
Oh, Alison, my aim is true.
My aim is true.

Laugh everyone at the clown
He's the best one in town, Ummm ummm
Ride on his merry-go-round
Spinning faster than sound
Uuuuh huh Uuuuh huh
Laugh as the funny man cries
Though his makeup is smeared
Uuuuh huuuh
Laugh at his comical tears
As he thinks of the years
Uuuuh huh Uuuuh huh
Livin' just a little
Laughing just a little
Ain't easy, Uuuuuh huuuuh
Livin' just a little
Laughing just a little
Ain't easy
Laugh everyone at the fool with his heart in his hand
Uuuuh huuuh
Mmmmm, he can't quite understand that he's less than a man
Uuuuh huuuh Uuuuh huuuh
Lost somewhere deep in his shell
There's an ember of pride
Uuuuh huuuh
Watch how he tries hard to hide that he's dying inside
Uuuuh huuuh
Uuuuh huuuh
Livin' just a little
Laughing just a little
Ain't easy, Uuuuuh huuuuh
Livin' just a little
Laughing just a little
Ain't easy
Livin' just a little
Laughing just a little
Ain't easy, Uuuuuh huuuuh
Livin' just a little
Laughing just a little
Ain't easy

People say I'm the life of the party
Because I tell a joke or two
Although I may be laughing loud and hearty
Deep inside I'm blue
So take a good look at my face
You'll see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
The tracks of my tears
/
Just like Pagliacci did
I'm gonna keep my sadness hid
Though smiling in the public eye
In my lonely room I cry
The tears of a clown
The tears of a clown
/
And no sponge has the power
To absorb the shower
Of what pancake and powder couldn't cover
But today as I look in the mirror
I see things a whole lot clearer
No more tearstained make-up for me
No more tearstained make-up for me

Tears on your blackmail
Written to ransom
A point of the fingernail
Says that he's handsome
(chorus):
Clowntime is over
Time to take cover
While others just talk and talk
Somebody's watching where the others don't walk
Clowntime is over
A voice in the shadows
Says that his men know
He don't step back as expected
He's otherwise and unprotected
(chorus)
Almost too good to be true
Who do you? Why do you? What do you do?
While everybody's hiding under covers
Who's making lover's lane safe again for lovers?
(chorus)
