The Clown - Maribou State, Pedestrian, John Beltran

Like a foreign tongue

I can’t speak

I fell down for you

For you, I’ve played the clown

Stayed around

Did what I had to

For too, for too long

Without my spine, I can’t sleep

Or stand with you

For you, I sold this home

For dust and stone

I did what I had to

For you, for you, for you, for you

For you, for you, for you, for you

I’ve played the clown for you, so lay me down with you

I’ve played the clown for you, so lay me down with you

I’ve played the clown for you, so lay me down with you

I’ve played the clown for you, so lay me down with you

No license to play, you’ll act the fool

These tricks are getting old

We take this road by being cruel

This scene remains unsolved

I’m lost so far from home

We are adrift at sea, more like to see

A perfect scene, a bottle green

A broken chance seam to seam

(So lay me down with you)

(So lay me down with you)

(So lay me down with you, with you, with you, with you)

(So lay me down with you)

(So lay me down with you)

I’ve played the clown for you, so lay me down with you

I’ve played the clown for you, so lay me down with you

I’ve played the clown for you, so lay me down with you

I’ve played the clown for you, so lay me down with you
