Now if there's a smile on my face
It's only they try to fool the public
When it comes down to fooling you
Honey, that's quite a different subject
But to let my bad expression
Give you the wrong impression
Really, I'm sad
Sad, sad, sad
I'm sad
I'm sad
Sad, sad, sad
You're gone and I'm feeling so bad
Sad, sad, sad
Like a clown I pretend to be glad
Sad, sad, sad
Now there's some sad things going around, baby
And you're not saying a thing
The tears of a clown
When there's no one around
No one around
Now if I appear to be carefree
In order to camouflage my sadness
In order to seal my soul out, child
To cover this hurt with a show of gladness
Yes, to let my show convince you
That I've been happy since you decided to go
Sad, sad, sad
You're gone and I won't let you know
Sad, sad, sad
No, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Sad, sad, sad, sad
Sad, sad, sad, sad
Now there's some sad things going around, baby
So much sadness
The tears of a clown
When there's no one around
When there's no one around
Yeah
Mm-hmm
Mm-hmm
Mm-hmm
Mm-hmm
Mm-hmm
Mm-hmm
Just life highly Iove you
I gotta keep my sadness in
