(Goodbye cruel world)

(Goodbye cruel world)

Oh, goodbye cruel world, I'm off to join the circus

Gonna be a broken-hearted clown

Paint my face with a good-for-nothin' 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

Bet I'll have them rolling in the aisle

And I'll forget that woman if it takes a hundred years

Oh oh oh, 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 could 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 woman, wherever she may be

That mean, fickle woman made a cryin' clown outta me

(Goodbye cruel world)

Shoot me out of a cannon, I don't care

Let the people point at me and stare

I'll tell the world that woman, wherever she may be

That mean, fickle woman made a cryin' clown outta me

Goodbye cruel world

Goodbye cruel world

FADE

Goodbye cruel world

Goodbye cruel world
