Manfred Mann - Ha! Ha! Said The Clown lyrics

Manfred Mann

Chorus

Ha ha said the clown

Has the king lost his crown,

Is the night being tight on romance

Ha ha said the clown

Is it bringing you down,

That you've lost your chance

Feeling low, gotta go

See a show in town

Hear the jokes, have a smoke,

and a laugh at the clown

In a whirl, see a girl

with a smile in her eyes

Never thought I'd be brought

right down by her lies

Chorus

In a trance, watch her dance

to the beat of the drums

Faster now, sweating brow,

I'm all the fingers and thumbs

Wonder why I hit the sky

When she blows me a kiss

In a while run a mile

I'm regretting all this

Chorus

Time to go, close the show,

Wave the people good-bye

Grab my coat, grab my hat,

Look that girl in the eye

Where's your home,

What's your phone number

Stop fooling round

Could have died she replied

"I'm the wife of the clown"

Chorus
