[ nonsense ] The Circus Is In Town

   
Turn your painted frown upside down  
 
before I smack it off your face  
 
Ever since the circus came to town  
they're everywhere like cockroaches  
overrunning the place
in oversized tennis shoes  
red rubber ball noses  
trying to chase away blues  
with slapstick antics  
silly poses  
attempting to make me laugh  
 
but I choose to not laugh  
because I hate clowns  
 
Yeah, I hate clowns  
 
and if I get the chance  
I'll take them down  
 
This is the last straw  
There ought to be a law
against wearing face paint
if it's not Halloween  
I'd be ashamed if I was a mime
but I ain't --- never will you catch me  
dressing as drag queen  
 
Take your mile long handkerchiefs  
those squirting flowers 
---stick'em where the sun never shined  

If I was a hero with superpowers  
I'd eradicate  
every  
single  
damn  
one of your kind  
 
because I hate clowns  
 
Yeah, I hate clowns  
 
and given the opportunity  
I'll run them down  
 
---drive right over their polka dotted bodies  
til I hear those annoying bicycle horns  
squeak their final squeaks---  
then in reverse, run them over a second time  
making certain they're dead  

I wish had a sawed off twelve gauge shotgun  
to blow off my own head  
every time the circus comes to my home town  
 
Did I tell you recently that I hate clowns?  
 
Yeah, I hate clowns  
 
and if I get my hands on one  
I'm gonna wring his filthy neck---  
pop his head off like a pimple  
jab a screwdriver in his painted dimple  
bash him with a mallet  
metal, not a rubber one  
Oh, it would be so simple  
 
Die, clowns die!
