[XTC - Dear Madam Barnum lyrics]

I put on a fake smile
And start the evening show
The public is laughing
I guess by now they know
So climb from your high horse and
Pull this freak show down
Dear Madam Barnum, I resign as clown

You said I was the master of all I surveyed
But now I'm sweeping up
The last in line in your circus parade

Children are clapping as I fall to the floor
My heart's torn and broken and
They just scream for more
If I'm not the sole fool
Who pulls his trousers down
Then dear Madam Barnum, I resign as clown

You tread the high wire
Between truth and lies

Your safety net just walked out
Much to your surprise

Strike up the band
Love and let the show begin
For this is the last time
I'm painting on a grin
If I'm not the sole fool
Who pulls his trousers down
Then dear Madam Barnum, I resign as clown

I resign as clown i resign as clown
