Be a Clown (From Film: The Pirate) |
| I’ll remember forever |
| When I was but three |
| Mama, who was clever |
| Remarking to me If son when you’re grown up You want everything nice |
| I’ve got your future sewn up If you take this advice |
| Be a clown, be a clown |
| All the world loves a clown |
| Act the fool, play the calf |
| And you’ll always have the last laugh |
| Wear the cap and the bells |
| And you’ll rate with all the great swells |
| If you become a doctor, folks’ll face you with dread |
| If you become a dentist, they’ll be glad when you’re dead |
| You’ll get a bigger hand if you can stand on your head |
| Be a clown, be a clown, be a clown |
| Be a clown, be a clown |
| All the world loves a clown |
| Show 'em tricks, tell 'em jokes |
| And you’ll only stop with top folks |
| Be a crack Jackanapes |
| And they’ll imitate you like apes |
| Why be a great composer with your rent in arrears |
| Why be a major poet and you’ll owe it for years |
| When crowds’ll pay to giggle if you wiggle your ears |
| Be a clown, be a clown, be a clown |
| Be a clown, be a clown |
| All the world loves a clown |
| If you just make 'em roar |
| Watch your Mounte bank account soar |
| Wear a painted mustache |
| And you’re sure to make a big splash |
| A college education I should never propose |
| A bachelor’s degree won’t even keep you in clothes |
| But millions you will win if you can spin on your nose |
| Be a clown, be a clown, be a clown |
| Give 'em quips, give 'em fun |
| And they’ll happy to say you’re A-1 |
| If you become a farmer you’ve the weather to buck |
| If you become a gambler you’ll be stuck with your luck |
| But Jack you’ll never lack if you can quack like a duck |
| Be a clown, be a clown, be a clown |
