Queen of the Clowns

Sittin' there on a bar stool

A queen on a throne

It's hard to look pretty

When you're all alone

No one there to love her

And no one sees her crown

She's there on her barstool

She's the queen of the clowns

The queen of the clowns

If they only knew

She's the queen of the clowns

And she's a lovesick fool

Below the tiny tiara

Oh, she tries to mask her frowns

She's there on her barstool

She's the queen of the clowns

The faces of lovers

Rollin' around in the wine

A tear hits her lashes

But her mascara's fine

The jukebox played Faron

And she started to think

If Faron Young were here

He would buy me a drink

The queen of the clowns

If they only knew

She's the queen of the clowns

And she's a love sick fool

Below the tiny tiara

Oh, she tries to mask her frowns

She's there on her barstool

She's the queen of the clowns

It's lonely on this barstool

She's the queen of the clowns
