I've done some things that don't make me proud
Call me the king, I'm the king of clowns
No-one's laughing cause they take it seriously
My bad decisions worked out for a while
I do my dance tried to make you smile
I'll never wise up it's just the way I be
I had it all worked out I played it fast and loud
I never thought of all the risks that I was taking
I lived a little too hard and charged it all on my card
You'd see through all the smiles I was faking
I took myself as a joke the punchline ended on me
Can't you see?
I've done some things that don't make me proud
Call me the king, I'm the king of Clowns
No-one's laughing cause they take it seriously
My bad decisions worked out for a while
I do my dance tried to make you smile
I'll never wise up it's just the way I be
You say that I'll never learn
Investments never return
I'm wheeling dealing I'm a joker I'm a dreamer
So darling if that's the case I'm getting out of this race
Ain't too proud to admit I really need ya?
But can we still share a laugh or don't you like comedy?
The joke is always on me
And darling can't you see, ah yeah
Yeah I'm the King of Clowns
Look who's laughing now
Don't take it seriously
Don't take me so seriously baby
Yeah I'm the King of Clowns
I see you laughing now
It's just the way I be, ya-yah
Oh don't think I'm that smart not to do anything that stupid baby
