[Verse 1]
Laughing clown ventures forth in a hot air balloon
Spreads his magic fairy dust all around the room
Little good girls and little good boys set their eyes to the sky
Wanna see just how high the crazy clown can fly

[Chorus]
I see the world in your golden eyes
The lizards who taught me to read
My love's like a library card, it's all the same to me
I make an attempt trying to see the trend
But I can't get to the end
There's just the pain that time won't mend
Like poisonous ink from a pen

[Verse 2]
Flame weekends in the pale moonlight
Thе clown's journey ends tonight
Somberly yеt sweetly he puts out his pilot light
Lands softly in the water, his ambition grows dry
Little good girls and little good boys begin to cry

[Chorus]
I see the world in your golden eyes
The lizards who taught me to read
My love's like a library card, it's all the same to me
I make an attempt trying to see the trend
But I can't get to the end
There's just the pain that time won't mend
Like poisonous ink from a pen
