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
A 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 (there should be a holiday)
I would lead the big parade downtown (I would the big parade)
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 holiday)
There should be a big parade downtown (I would the big parade)
If I could have my way
Just once a year there'd be a day
A special day
A holiday for clowns
