Lyrics Send in the Clowns - The New Black

Send in the Clowns

You screwed this up, son, the wise man said
You have to lie in the bed you’ve made.
Well, lie I did.
Oh box, did I!
I guess the joke is on me this time
Send in the clowns
Send in the clowns
The fool on the tightrope came crashing down
Send in the clowns
Send in the clowns
When hope is gone, the show must go on
Since happy ever after died
And let the rage for change subside
I humbly love the little one
But the failure lingers on and on
Send in the clowns
Send in the clowns
The fool on the tightrope came crashing down
Send in the clowns
Send in the clowns
When hope is gone, the show must go on
Never let them see the tears
After all the show went on for years
After all the show went on for years
Send in the clowns
Send in the clowns
The fool on the tightrope came crashing down
Send in the clowns
Send in the clowns
When hope is gone, the show must go on
