Don’t Send in the Clowns Lyrics by Space Ghost (TV Show)

Space Ghost’s Musical Bar-B-Que

1997

Aight, look out
{Zorak]
My mother said to me one day "my little tater tot,"
We're going to the circus whether you like it or not."
I told her she could take a hike
She kicked me in the rear
I said "alright I'll go but let me just make one thing clear."
[Chorus]
Don't send in the clowns. (eugh...)
Don't send in the clowns
Don't send in the clowns
They always bring me down
Hey
[Zorak & Brak}
So my mother dragged me to the circus on that day
She bought me cotton candy which I quickly threw away
There were jugglers, acrobats
A monkey... in a dress. (ooh-ah-ah-ah-ah!)
The elephant made quite a stink, it was okay I guess
[Chorus]
But, then came the clowns. (eugh...)
No, not the clowns!
Don't send those clowns. (eugh...)
Anything but them. (bleugh...)
Don't send in the clowns
No, why did it have to be clowns?
I ran home from the circus and I never went again
Phooey!
