Do you remember the walks through the circus? When I told you a secret or two About the day your brother died in the pool As I watched his eyes pleading to stay And I watched his life floating away Mary's Leather Clown You liked the coffee but you didn't like the c**aine At the kitchen table three days with some friends And my reply was a lie I said love never dies And yes I exercise my demons it's true But it helps me with what I'm to do to Mary's Leather Clown You liked the colors but you didn't like the explosions In the summer I said we were through And the night was alive like the fourth July skies And now I'm shuffling pictures of you Preparing what I am to do to Mary's Leather Clown
