Whitey - Send Out the Clowns lyrics
[Whitey - Send Out the Clowns lyrics]
Man behind the curtain!
And all the little sleeping men
Are restless in their sleep
All troubled by the dreams of what could be
And even in those dreams
A thousand petty schemes
Are slicing up their dignity
Those clowns who dance before their eyes
Are carefully disguised
As people who are just like you and me
Yet no other men on Earth
Are allowed to do their worst
Then wipe their dirty hands on us
So send, send, send send out the clowns
We've been watching too long
We need something to focus on
So, please, please, please
Send out the clowns
We need someone to help us see
Something to help us breathe
Something to help us breathe
Something to help us breathe
Sensation, all this information
Steals our concentration
Keeps us in a state of apathy
And even whilst we sleep
A thousand grinning creeps
Are feeding off our energies
Those clowns that dance before your eyes
Are carefully disguised
As people who are just like you and me
Yet no other men on Earth
Are allowed to do their worst
Then wipe their dirty hands on us
They wipe their dirty hands on us!
Send, send, send send out the clowns
We've been watching too long
We need something to focus on
So, please, please, please
Send out the clowns
We need something to help us see
Something to focus on
Something to help us breathe
Something to help us breathe
Something to help us breathe
Something to help us breathe
Something to help us breathe
Something to help us breathe
Something to help us breathe
Something to help us breathe
Something to help us breathe
Something to help us breathe
