Tears Of A Clown

Say oh yeah baby baby
Now if there’s a smile on my face
It’s only there tryin’ to fool the public
But when it comes down to foolin’ you
Now honey that’s quite a different subject

So don’t let my glad expression
Give you the wrong impression
‘Cause really I’m sad
(so sad sad)
Oh I’m sadder than sad
(so sad sad)
Well I’m hurt and I want you so bad
(so sad sad)
Like a clown I appear to be glad

Ooh yeah
There’s some sad things known to man
But ain’t too much sadder than
The tears of a clown
When there’s no one around

Say oh yeah baby baby baby
Oh yeah baby baby baby

Now if I appear to be carefree
It’s only to camouflage my sadness
And honey to shield my pride I try
To cover this hurt
with a show of gladness
So don’t let my show convince you
That I’ve been happy since you
decided to go
Oh I need you so
Look I’m hurt and I want you to know
Just for others I put on a show

Ooh yeah
There’s some sad things known to man
But ain’t too much sadder than
The tears of a clown

Just like Pagliacci did
I’m gonna keep my surface hid
Hiding in my room I try
But in this lonely room I cry
The tears of a clown
When there’s no one around

Rankin’ come forward.
Full Stop, say Ranking Full Stop.
Full Stop, say Ranking Full Stop.
My name is Ranking Full Stop
So all you really got to do
is just-a move you little feet
And just-a rock-a to the beat,
as I would say, yeah, alright
And when you hear the signal
you must stop, I said rock
I said you rock it
and you shock it and you, ooh, say so, oh lord.

Now hold on down there.
Take it easy, yeah, alright
Said are you ready,

Full Stop. Ranking Full Stop.
Said Ranking Full Stop. Brr-yeah.

You move your little feet,

You hear this song and you gotta come around,
I see you upon the street, you look so sweet,
I see you with your dancin’ feet, yeah.
Said are you ready, said are you ready to stop,
Said are you ready, said are you ready to stop,
I said stop.

Ready, said are you ready to go,
Said are you ready, said are you ready to go.

Say Ranking Full Stop.
As I would tell ya ’bout this song, so c’mon.

And I would really, really tell ya and show you all
To do the Ranking Full Stop.

I said you move to your left
and then you move to you right,
Tell you ’bout this song and you got to unite.
You move to your left
and then you move to your right
And then you do it ’till midnight y’know
All singing are you ready,
said are you ready to stop,
Said are you ready,
said are you ready to stop,
I said stop.
