Painted face, and big sad eyes A painted tear, enormous size Large red lips, with silly grin Huge red nose, and floppy chin The clown remains a cherished part Of happy times, and playful art Makes us giggle and laugh with glee Gives us joyful comedy But why the tear so largely traced? Why the sad look upon his face? He smiles so large for all to see Yet one can feel his misery The tear is what, gives him away Its always there, right to this day Perhaps you know someone like him Who's sad inside, with outward grin Do something nice, to dry his tear Give him a hug, just hold him near Its the little things that mean so much A little wink, or a gentle touch Beneath a mask, his sadness hides Below the smile, a grimace lies Once his love, lead him astray His painted tear, gives him away ~ |
