There should be a holiday for clowns
there should be a big parade downtown
so girls like you could see
what fools you've made of guys like me
a day that clowns don't have to hide
the feelings that they have inside, oh
there should be a holiday for clowns
a day for guys like me to paint the town
festive clown affair
to make believe that we don't care
a special day, a holiday for clowns
Time after time i have tried to say goodbye to you
but somehow when i try to leave you
i just can't go; i love you so
If there could be a holiday for clowns
i would lead the big parade downtown
and see you standing there
and tell myself that i don't care
but we both know that that's not true
tomorrow i'll be back lovin' you, oh
there should be a holiday for clowns
there should be a big parade downtown
if i could have my way
just once a year, there'd be a day
a special day, a holiday for clowns
a special day, a holiday for clowns
