I saw but I still can't believe

you told me you would be alone

it hit me as I watched him leave

why was I the last to know

i's over it's over

 

you killed the clown

left him in lonely town 

you killed the clown

laughed when his heart hit ground

you killed the clown

the carnival just came down

'cuz you killed the clown

 

what did you think i would say

words don't really come so well

I felt like the king for a day

but I was just the fool who fell

over and over

 

you killed the clown

left him in lonely town 

you killed the clown

laughed when his heart hit ground

you killed the clown

the carnival just came down

'cuz you killed the clown

 

the times we spent together

flash before my eyes

with every one I know

we're through but oh

I'd do it all again

 

you killed the clown

left him in lonely town 

you killed the clown

laughed when his heart hit ground

you killed the clown

the carnival just came down

'cuz you killed the clown
