The snow is falling down And Christmas is coming round All the children count down the days Until Saint Nick hops on his sleigh But this year I paint my face With tears perfectly placed Under eyes bloodshot and dazed Because you packed up and went away I'm a sad Christmas Clown Now that you're not around All my holiday cheer Has gone up in smoke Now I crack the bottle I wail and I moan A sad Christmas Clown left here alone
When I was a child Without a care in the world I never would have dreamed that I'd find a girl Who'd rip out my heart And tear me apart Cutting me down to the bone Turning my love into stone I'm a sad Christmas Clown Now that you're not around All my holiday cheer Has gone up in smoke Now I crack the bottle I wail and I moan A sad Christmas Clown left here alone Sad Christmas Clown
