Thompson Twins - You k**ed The Clown lyrics

Draped in silk gown She danced around She filled this place with her smile She was the queen Of an Amazon dream She made us feel for a while (chorus) Was it from spite Or just sheer delight You stooped so low Now I wanna know Why you k**ed the clown Yeah, you shot her down I watch you try Try to make that girl cry So you could be king for just one day And you said that her smile Was no more than a lie Just because she had something, something to say Was it from spite Or just sheer delight You stooped so low Now I wanna know Why you k**ed the clown Yeah, you shot her down Was it from spite Or just sheer delight You stooped so low Now I wanna know Why you k**ed the clown Yeah, you shot her down Yeah, you, you k**ed the clown You laughed as she drowned And it was the only time I ever saw you smile Oh Precious and few Were the clowns we all knew And though they made us feel for a while Was it from spite Or just sheer delight You stooped so low Now I wanna know Why you k**ed the clown Yeah, you shot her down Oh, you shot her down.
