Laugh! Clown! Laugh!

Even though you're only make believing

Laugh, clown, laugh, clown

Even though something inside is grieving

Laugh, clown, laugh, clown

Don't let your heart grow too mellow

Just be a real Punchinello, fellow

You're supposed to brighten up the place

Laugh, clown, laugh, clown

Paint a lot of smiles around your face

And laugh, clown, don't you frown

Don't let the world know your sorrow

Be a pallietto and laugh, clown, laugh

Even though you're only make believing

Laugh, clown, laugh, clown, laugh

Even though something inside is grieving

Laugh, clown, laugh, clown

Don't let your heart grow too mellow

You gotta be, yes you gotta be a real Punchinello, fellow

Supposed to brighten up the place

And laugh, clown, laugh, clown

Paint a lot of smiles upon your face

And laugh, clown, don't you frown

Don't let the world know your sorrow

Be a pallietto and laugh, clown, laugh, clown

Laugh clown, laugh
