Lyrics:Cole Porter Music:Cole Porter | |
I'll remember forever, when I was but three, | |
Mama, who was clever remarking to me: | |
"If, son, when you're grown up, you want everything nice, | |
I've got your future sewn up if you take this advice: | |
Be a clown, | |
Be a clown, | |
All the world loves a clown | |
Act the fool, play the calf | |
And you'll always have the last laugh, | |
Wear the cap and the bells | |
And you'll rate with all the great swells, | |
If you become a doctor, folks'll face you with dread, | |
If you become a dentist, they'll be glad when you're dead, | |
You'll get a bigger hand if you can stand on your head. | |
Be a clown, be a clown, be a clown! | |
Be a clown, | |
Be a clown, | |
All the world loves a clown | |
Be a crazy buffoon | |
And the 'demoiselles'll all swoon, | |
Dress in huge baggy pants | |
And you'll ride the road to romance, | |
A butcher or a baker ladies never embrace, | |
A barber for a beau would be a social disgrace, | |
They all'll come to call if you can fall on your face. | |
Be a clown, be a clown, be a clown! | |
Be a clown, | |
Be a clown, | |
All the world loves a clown | |
Be the poor silly ass | |
And you'll always travel first class, | |
Give 'em quips, give 'em fun, | |
And they'll pay to say you're A-1, | |
If you become a farmer you've the weather to buck, | |
If you become a gambler, you'll be stuck with your luck | |
But jack you'll never lack if you can quack like a duck, | |
Be a clown, be a clown, be a clown! |
