Goodbye Cruel World

Goodbye cruel world.

Goodbye cruel world.

Oh, goodbye cruel world,

I'm off to join the circus.

I'm gonna be a broken-hearted clown.

Paint my face with a good-for-nothing smile,

'cause a mean fickle woman turned my whole world upside-down.



Goodbye cruel world.

Farewell to love,

I'm off to join the circus

Gotta find a way to hide my tears.

Then I'll have them rolling in the aisles,

And I'll forget about a woman

If it takes 100 years.



Goodbye cruel world.

Ooh, step right up,

and take a look at a fool.

He's got a heart as stubborn as a mule.

C'mon everybody, he's good for a laugh.

And no one can tell his heart is broken in half.



Well, the joke's on me,

I'm off to join the circus,

Oh Mr. Barnum save a place for me.

Shoot me out of a cannon,

I don't care.

Let the people point at me and stare.

I'll tell the world that a woman,

wherever she may be,

That mean fickle woman made a crying clown out of me.

Goodbye cruel world.

Goodbye cruel world.
