Now if there's a smile on my face only there trying to fool the public
But when it comes down to fooling you Now honey that's quite a different subject
But don't let my glad expression Give you the wrong impression
Cause really I'm sad, Oh I'm sadder than sad Well I'm hurt and I want you so bad
Like a clown I appear to be glad .. (sad, sad, sad, sad) ...ooh yeah
...CHORUS:    Well they're some sad things known to man..
. But ain't too much sadder than The tears of a clown when there's no one around
Oh yeah, baby baby, oh yeah baby baby ... Now if I appear to be carefree It's only to camouflage my sadness
And honey to shield my pride I try To cover this hurt with a show of gladness
But don't let my show convince you That I've been happy since you
Decided to go... (why did you go) ... oh I need you so...(I need you so) Look I'm hurt and I want you to know
(want.you to know.) It's for others I put on a show... (it's just a show)
...CHORUS .... Just like Pagliacci did I try to keep my sadness hid Smiling in the crowd I try
But in a lonely room I cry The tears of a clown When there's no one around. . . oh yeah, baby baby
Now if there's a smile on my face Don't let my glad expression
Give you the wrong impression Don't let this smile I wear Make you think that I don't care Cos really I'm sad.
Oh I'm sadder than sad Well I'm hurt and I want you so bad Like a clown I appear to be glad ...ooh yeah
...CHORUS ...


Henry Cosby / Stevie Wonder / William Jr. Robinson
