Clare & The Reasons - Make Them Laugh lyrics

Stand in front of the mirror Hold your shoulders back Powder your face lily white The old fashioned way Photograph of your father Watches proudly from the metal box Step right up to his big shoes Ahhh Oooh Ahhh This is what it takes to Make them laugh Use your whole whole body Just to make them laugh And you lost your shadow But you can make them laugh And you want to crumble But you make them Laugh Ooooh oooh Ahh ahhh Ahhh ahhh And your mother Flew above the crowd With her sequins on Your father caught her falling With his red nose on it was circus love They left the show to raise you But it's all you want And it's all you know Paper flowers blooming head to toe Aahhhh Oooh ahhhhhh This is what it takes Just to make them laugh And you study hard In the dry summer gra** You are quiet and tall And you see your life Through a laser light And they start to laugh And your heart fills in And you see what he's been You move your body Just to make them laugh This is what it takes Just to make them laugh Just to make them laugh Ahhhh ahhhh Ahhhh ahhhh Ahhhh ahhh Ahhh ahhhh Ahhhh ahhhh Ahhhh ahhhh Ahhhh ahhh Ahhh ahhhh
