Whoa, goodbye cruel world
I'm off to join the circus
Gonna be a broken-hearted clown
Paint my face with a good for nothin' smile
'Cause a neat freak woman
Turned my whole world upside down
(Goodbye cruel world, dum-dum-dum-dum)
(Goodbye cruel world)
Whoa, farewell to love
I'm off to join the circus
Gotta find a way to hide my tears
Bet I'll have them rollin' in the aisles
And I'll forget that woman
If it takes a hundred years
Whoa, step right up
And take a look at her fool
He's got a heart as stubborn as a mule
Come on, everybody, he's good for a laugh
And no one can tell his heart is broken in half
Well, joke's on me, I'm off to join the circus
Oh, Mr. Barnum, save a place for me
Shoot me out of a cannon, I don't care
Let the people point at me and stare
I'll tell the world that woman, wherever she may be
That neat freak woman
Made a crying clown out of me
(Goodbye cruel world, dum-dum-dum-dum)
(Goodbye cruel world)
Whoa, shoot me out of a cannon, I don't care
Let the people point at me and stare
I'll tell the world that woman, wherever she may be
That neat freak woman
Made a crying clown out of me
(Goodbye cruel world, dum-dum-dum-dum)
(Goodbye cruel world)
