Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I guess it's funnier from where you're standing
'Cause from over here, I missed the joke
Clear the way for my crash landing
I've done it again, another number for your notes
[Verse 2]
I'd be smiling if I wasn't so desperate
I'd be patient if I had the time
I could stop and answer all of your questions
As soon as I find out
How I can move from the back of the line
[Chorus]
I'll be your clown behind the glass
Go ahead and laugh 'cause it's funny
I would too if I saw me
I'll be your clown on your favorite channel
My life's a circus, circus, 'round in circles
I'm selling out tonight
[Verse 3]
I'd be less angry if it was my decision
And the money was just rolling in
If I had more than my ambition
I'll have time for please, I'll have time for thank you
As soon as I win
[Chorus]
I'll be your clown behind the glass
Go ahead and laugh 'cause it's funny
I would too if I saw me
I'll be your clown on your favorite channel
My life's a circus, circus, 'round in circles
I'm selling out tonight
[Verse 4]
From a distance, my choice is simple
From a distance, I can entertain
So you can see me
I put makeup on my face
But there's no way you can feel it
From so far away, yeah
[Chorus]
I'll be your clown behind the glass
Go ahead and laugh 'cause it's funny
I would too if I saw me
I'll be your clown on your favorite channel
My life's a circus, circus, 'round in circles
I'm selling out tonight
