Oh her fool heart...its been yearnin'...

for a love to...come her way

But she don't see...that he's burnin'...

For another....in her place....



Still she wants him...oh so badly...

that she don't see...what's in her face...

Just another...fool he made her....

and he'll laugh when....her heart breaks...

Let me tell ya....



(chorus)



A parade of clowns and fools pass by me all night, all day

can't stop them from coming....

They make me sick as they laugh and sneer...

But they never, never, never....listen....

They just gonna laugh their lives away...



Knew a young boy....he was drinking.....

couldn't see lord.....he couldn't see straight...

Wouldn't listen...to what you'd tell him...

Took his car to....a watery grave....

Let me tell ya again...listen up



A parade of clowns and fools pass by me all night, all day...

can't stop them from coming....

They make me sick as they laugh and sneer...

But they never, never, never.....listen.....

They just gonna laugh their lives away....



(a solo)



(chorus)



Clowns and fools......(etc...)
