On our website, we have the complete lyrics of the song The Tears Of a Clown that you were looking for.

Now if there's a smile on my face
It's only there trying to fool the public
But when it comes down to fooling you
Now, honey, that's quite a different subject

But don't let my glad expression
Give you the wrong impression

Really I'm sad
Oh, I'm sadder than sad
Well, I'm hurt and I want you so bad
Like a clown I appear to be glad

Well, they're some sad things known to man
But ain't too much sadder than
The tears of a clown
When there's no-one around

Oh yeah, baby

Now if I appear to be carefree
It's only to camouflage my sadness
And, honey, to shield my pride I try
To cover this hurt with a show of gladness

But don't let my show convince you
That I've been happy since you
Decided to go, oh, I need you so
Look I'm hurt and I want you to know
For others I put on a show

Well, they're some sad things known to man

But ain't too much sadder than
The tears of a clown
When there's no-one around, oh yeah

Just like Pagliacci did
I try to keep my surface hid
Smiling in the crowd I try
But in a lonely room I cry

The tears of a clown
When there's no-one around

Oh yeah, baby

Now if there's a smile on my face
Don't let my glad expression
Give you the wrong impression

Don't let this smile I wear
Make you think that I don't care
'Cause really I'm sad
