Be A Clown - The Wizard Of Oz |
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 ev’rything 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 a 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. |
Be a crazy buffoon |
And the demoiselles’ll all swoon. |
Dress in huge, baggy pants |
And you’ll ride the road to romance. |
A butcher or a baker, ladies never embrace, |
A barber for a beau would be a social disgrace, |
They all’ll come to call if you can fall on your face, |
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 mountebank 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 clo’es, |
But millions you will win if you can spin on your nose. |
Be a clown, be a clown, be a clown. |
Be a clown, be a clown, |
All the world loves a clown. |
Be a poor silly ass |
And you’ll always travel first-class, |
Give 'em quips, give 'em fun, |
And they’ll pay 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 |
(Quack, quack, quack, quack) |
Be a clown, be a clown, be a clown. |
