Lyrics

Staring at the walls again
And I'm thinkin every now and then
How time goes by,
Every moment like the rest of your life
And how the walls are closin in on your mind
CHORUS 1
And its a break-down Saturday night
He paints his face on, it'll be alright
Cause all the world loves a clown
So he goes tumblin down

Haven't got a whole lot to say
Can feel it all just slippin away
But life goes on,
The tribulations in the trials that you're on
The situation is that all hope is gone
CHORUS 2
And it's a break-down Saturday night
He paints his face on it'll be alright
Cause all the world loves a clown
So he goes tumblin down
And if the things he does is just too much
Communicate it to the ones that you love
In the middle of a break-down everytime
When you're lonely, and your heart says honey give me a sign
But all you get's jumbled sounds
So we go tumblin down

This concludes our work for today
Tomorrow the lessons in pain
And the world goes round
And the circus rolls into town
Will anyone cry tears for the clown?
CHORUS 3
And it's a break-down Saturday night
He paints his face on it'll be alright
Cause all the world loves a clown
So he goes tumblin down
And if the things he does is just too much
Communicate it to the ones that you love
In the middle of a break-down everytime
Don't you know it, how the Doomsday clock says it's almost midnight
And all the world fumbles round
So we go tumblin down
