| Look-a there, there he goes |
| Ha, there goes the funny man |
| The life of the party, that’s me And they’d never guess |
| That I had a care |
| They’d be amazed to see me cry |
| When the party’s through |
| Cry over you |
| Talk loud, funny man |
| In the crowd, funny man |
| You’re in rare form today |
| Leave em' laughing as you walk away, yeah, yeah |
| But they wouldn’t laugh |
| If they only knew that I’ll go home alone |
| To cry, cry the whole night through |
| Cry over you |
| And who’s to know that this clever clown |
| Is really the fool of a town? |
| Yes, who’s to know the girl I loved |
| Laughed when she turned me down? |
| So, tell a joke, funny man |
| Be gay, funny man |
| Don’t give yourself away, funny man |
| Pretend you didn’t love her anyway |
| Act as though nothin’s wrong |
| Wear good smile to go alone |
| Then cry, cry the whole night through |
| 'Cause there’s nothin' you can do |
