[Verse 1]
D# Fm
She`ll fix you with an iron cross
D# Fm
And cover you up with petals
D# Fm
And hang you up with some amber beads
D# Fm
And four or five precious metals
D# Fm
And in that black flamingo chair
D# Fm
You`ll sit among her trophies
D# Fm
And pray to be abandoned
D# Fm
Till you don`t know what hope is
[Chorus]
D# G# Cm Fm
But there`s one thing that I had to keep inside
D# G#
Because I was shaking
Cm Fm
Why don`t you get some pride
Cm
There was a clown strike
Cm
And the clowns threw down their tools
G#
But you don`t have to play so hard
Cm
And I`m nobody`s fool
D# Fm7
You don`t have to go so far
D# Fm7 D# Fm7
`Cause I love you as you are
[Verse 2]
D# Fm
The big top is deserted now
D# Fm
And the circus girl rehearses
D# Fm
She knows how to turn their heads
D# Fm
And not fall between two horses
D# Fm
But all that seems a simple step
D# Fm
If only I were able
D# Fm
To love you like I want to do
D# Fm
And not by some times table
[Chorus]
D# G# Cm Fm
But there`s one thing that I had to keep inside
D# G#
Because I was shaking
Cm Fm
Why don`t you get some pride
Cm
There was a clown strike
Cm
And the clowns threw down their tools
G#
But you don`t have to play so hard
Cm
And I`m nobody`s fool
D# Fm7
You don`t have to go so far
D# Fm7 D# Fm7
`Cause I love you as you are
[Refrain]
G#
And it`s pandemonium
Fm7 D#
For the humble and the mighty
Fm D#/G G#
You don`t have to tumble for me
G#m Cm
Even a clown knows when to strike
[Verse 3]
D# Fm
Tell me what you want of me
D# Fm
Or are you terrified of failure?
D# Fm
You put on a superstitious face
D# Fm
Behind all this paraphernalia
D# Fm
We`re not living in a masquerade
D# Fm
Where you only have three wishes
D# Fm
It isn't easy to see
D# Fm
In a lifetime of mistaken kisses
[Chorus]
D# G# Cm Fm
But there`s one thing that I had to keep inside
D# G#
Because I was shaking
Cm Fm
Why don`t you get some pride
Cm
There was a clown strike
Cm
And the clowns threw down their tools
G#
But you don`t have to play so hard
Cm
And I`m nobody`s fool
D# Fm7
You don`t have to go so far
D# Fm7 D# Fm7
`Cause I love you as you are
[Refrain]
G#
In this it`s pandemonium
Fm7 D#
For the humble and the mighty
Fm D#/G G#
You don`t have to tumble for me
G#m Cm
Even a clown knows when to strike
