Death of a Clown — текст песни (Kinks)

My makeup is dry and it clags on my chin

Im drowning my sorrows in whisky and gin

The lion tamers whip doesnt crack anymore

The lions they wont fight and the tigers wont roar



La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

So lets all drink to the death of a clown

Wont someone help me to break up this crown

Lets all drink to the death of a clown

Lets all drink to the death of a clown



The old fortune teller lies dead on the floor

Nobody needs fortunes told anymore

The trainer of insects is crouched on his knees

And frantically looking for runaway fleas



La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

Lets all drink to the death of a clown

So wont someone help me to break up this crown

Lets all drink to the death of a clown

La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

Lets all drink to the death of a clown

La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
