Lyrics for Song: Rodeo Clowns
Lyrics for Album: On And On [2003]
Sweepin' the floors,
Open up the doors yeah,
Turn on the lights,
gettin' ready for the night
Nobody's romancin'
'cuz it's too early for dancin'
but here comes the music
Bright lights flashing they cover up you
Like a so many people so many problems so many reasons
to buy another round,
drink it down
just another night on the town
with the big man,
money man better than the other man
he got the plan with the million dollars give a damn
when nobody understands,
he'll become a smaller man
the bright lights keep flashin
man the women keep on dancin
chorus
with the clowns yeah yeah yeah
pick me up when i'm down yeah yeah
the rodeo clowns yeah yeah yeah
pick me up when i'm down yeah yeah
The disco ball spinnin all the music and the women and the
shots of tequila man the'll say that they need ya
but what they really need,
is just a little room to breathe
teeny boppin disco queen she barely understands her dreams
of belly button rings and other kinds of things
symbolic of change
but the thing that is strange is that the
changes occured and now she's just a part of the
herd yeah yeah yeah
man i thought that you heard yeah yeah
the changes occured yeah yeah yeah
shes part of the herd yeah yeah
lights out shut down late night wet ground
you walk by, look at him but he can't look at you yeah
you might fell pity but he only feels the ground because
you understand moods but he only knows let down
by the corner there's another one,
reachin' out a hand comin
from a broken man, well,
you try to live,
but he's done tryin,
not dead but definetly dyin'
with the rest of the clowns yeah yeah
with the rest of the clowns yeah yeah
Chorus 2x
sweepin the floors, open up the doors yeah
turn on the lights, gettin ready for the night
nobody's romancin cuz it's too early for dancin, but here
comes the music
