tom smith (filk) - coulrophobia lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
it’s that time of year, for fun and for fear
for dressing as ghosts and ghouls
kids go down the street, they yell “trick or treat”
and they follow these simple rules

[verse 2]
don’t take any candy that smells like cheap brandy
open manholes, don’t crawl down
but the thing to do first is beware of the worst ++
too late! look out ++ it’s clowns

[chorus]
n0body knows where they came from
or how long or why they’re in town
no, all that we know is they’re here, they won’t go
and they seem to be all around
scary clowns

[verse 3]
with whiteface, bulb noses, and cute squirt+gun rosеs
and clothing that sears doesn’t sell
thеy remind us what’s good about our childhood
if we lived in kabuki h+ll

[verse 4]
their fluorescent shaped hair makes anime fans stare
and those big floppy shoes really fit
whether feathered or furry, there’s no need to worry
++ say, is that not tim curry from it?
[chorus]
they can pack thirty+five in a clown car
so they’ve no trouble under your bed
ignore that noise ’cause it’s not clowns in your closets
waiting for you to lay down your head
scary clowns

[bridge]
don’t think of those painted+on teardrops ++
couldn’t be they’re unable to cry
don’t think of the reasons they always wear gloves
don’t think about what’s in that pie

[bridge]
instead
think of the ones who would blow up balloons
in the shape of a dog or giraffe
yes, remember the fun, not those freakish buffoons
and for god’s sake don’t think of that laugh….

[verse 5]
it’s that time of year, when the clowns are all near
rather closer, in fact, than i like
always there with a gag from a big trick+filled bag
always waiting and ready to strike
[verse 6]
now, to tell you the truth, there’s not one shred of proof
that they really mean anyone ill
so you shouldn’t assume that they’ve got that push+broom
to clean up the mess from their k!ll

[chorus]
they’re jolly good fun entertainers
they’re prolly just clowning around
but watch for that sly little gleam in their eye
as you get on the merry+go+round
no, you’ve nothing to fear when the circus is here
at least till the sun goes down
scary clowns
scary clowns
scary clowns
scary clowns
