Текст песни Iron Maiden - Tears of a Clown

All alone in a crowded room
He tries to force a smile, the smile it beamed or so it seemed
But never reached the eyes, disguise
Masquerading as the funny man do they despise

The false smile maketh of the man, glass empty or half full
Try to make some sense or sorrows drown
All looks well on the outside, underneath the solemn truth
There’s something that inside has died

Tomorrow comes tomorrow goes but the cloud remains the same
Wonder why he’s feeling down, tears of a clown
Maybe it’s all just for the best, lay his weary head to rest
Was forever feeling drowned tears of a clown

Who motivates the motivator
Facade it has to go, he knows it sooner or later
Smile for cameras all ok
But tomorrow is another day he must get through

He had a longer way to run or so the story goes
Life full of fun where did it go
We saw the sadness in his eyes, it came as no surprise
And now of course we’ll never know

Tomorrow comes tomorrow goes but the cloud remains the same
Wonder why he’s feeling down, tears of a clown
Maybe it’s all just for the best, lay his weary head to rest
Was forever feeling drowned, tears of a clown

Tomorrow comes tomorrow goes but the cloud remains the same
Wonder why he’s feeling down, tears of a clown
Maybe it’s all just for the best, lay his weary head to rest
Was forever feeling down, tears of a clown

Tears of a clown...
