The World's Biggest Clown

The circus was coming to town And of course I had to go see For I'd heard the world's biggest clown Was a headliner to be. So off to the fairgrounds I went And with the crowds high in the stands, It was some afternoon I spent With the wild animals and the bands. But the world's biggest clown to see, In his funny suit, long tie and mop hair; He's why most of us paid the fee For this act supposedly beyond compare. Until saying anything he wanted And flip flopping every which way, In his clown suit how he flaunted The absurdities of life today. And maybe our eyes deceiving But this clown I thought why the fuss; I mean his act to be believing, Surely, the joke must be on us.
