Rhodes
Oh, a clown's no good unless he laughs
So come on, my friend, and make me laugh
Oh, a clown's no good unless he laughs
Come on, my friend, don't you be mellow
Be a jolly fellow for me, oh-oh, oh-oh
For life has been a trying day now
Come on laugh you know how, oh-oh, oh-oh
And when I cry make my day sunny
Do something funny for me, oh-oh, oh-oh
And when I'm high on joyous laughter
I won't think about after till then, oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh, a clown's no good unless he laughs
So come on, my friend, and make me laugh
Oh, a clown's no good unless he laughs
Hand me a glass, I'll serve myself, Joe
I want no one to know I'm drunk, oh-oh, oh-oh
And when I'm smashed, just lay me down, friend
And spread a wide grin and laugh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Our days are here, there's nowhere to run
So I will drink some and hope, oh-oh, oh-oh
They'll disappear but it does me no good
And I know I should be home, oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh, a clown's no good unless he laughs
So come on, my friend, and make me laugh
Oh, a clown's no good unless he laughs
