I can sing, I can dance
Just give me a chance
To do my turn for you

There's a chance I'll slip
But with stiff upper lip
I'll sing my song for you

Laughter is free
But it's so hard to be a jester all the time
And no one's believing I'm the same when I'm bleeding
And I hurt all the time deep inside

I've shed a tear for the lying
While everyday trying
To paint this smile for you

Backflips, cartwheelings, somersault feelings
What is there left to do?

Laughter is free
But it's so hard for me, a jester all the time
No one's believing I'm the same when I'm bleeding
And I hurt all the time deep inside

Roll up, roll up, enjoy the show
Pick me up, wind me up, put me down
You'll see me go

And this painted smile
May miss for a while
Then come back and steal your show

I sing, I dance
Give me a chance to do my turn for you
With backflips, cartwheelings, somersault feelings
What's there left to do?

Laughter is free
But it's so hard to be a jester all the time
No one's believing I'm the same when I'm bleeding
And I hurt all the time deep inside

Laughter is free
But it's so hard to be a jester all the time
No one's believing I'm the same when I'm bleeding
And I hurt all the time deep inside
