Queen of the Clowns Songtext
von Taylor Hawkins & The Coattail Riders

I saw your face, had to hide
Held my tongue, at least I tried
There′s no space in this town
And my jokes, much too loud

Now we know, and that's fine
Just a big waste of time
When I see hangin′ round
I get lost in the sound
I hear it now

Every dog has his day
Everyone gotta pay the fine

You're the queen of the clowns
Take a good look around (hey!)

Whataya, whataya, whataya, whataya, what are you runnin' from
Nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody cares
I really wanna be a fly on the wall
When the mask comes off
Would it make my skin crawl
Whataya, whataya, whataya, whataya, whataya you runnin′ from


I saw your face, had to laugh
At the size of your ass
For of favour, no more rides
You can carry the cross, you can′t bury the lies

Heard the word on streets and it's all so complete
A good story to be told
And it′s true
You can't make this shit up
It goes

Everyone′s got a price
But your price always seems
Way too high

Take a good look around
You're the queen of the clowns

Whataya, whataya, whataya, whataya, whataya you runnin′ from
Nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody cares
I really wanna be a fly on the wall
When the mask comes off
Would it make my skin crawl
Whataya, whataya, whataya, whataya, whataya you runnin' from


Follow the leader right through the wall
Did you borrow from Peter and gave it to Paul
You never get tired cause you love it in hell
And you live on the brink as you dance on eggshells

Every dog, has his day
Pay the fine
Every word that you say
You gotta pay the fine
Every dog, has his day
You gotta pay the fine
Every word that you say
You gotta pay the fine
