"Channel 01 Clown" lyrics

"Channel 01 Clown"

Babe, get in here, it's starting!

I know, I'm getting your drink that you asked for!

Well I could do without the attitude...

Oh, could you?

What do you mean, could I? Of course I could-

I snuck a peak and found no one that's not me
So I juggled my feet across town decked in motley
Seeking applause to seem oddly godly
Channel one! We want you to watch me

Attention expected wherever I walk in
Absently serving my talking
But at least you'll catch that I matched my shirt and my socks when
Only my face can fit in my coffin

Laughter, applause, and abrasive bells!
Covered in glue, so I'll stick!
Everything's huge, everything's huge but my- car!

Channel one... Channel one...

Head like the tail of peacock
Consumed by the movements of grooming my plumage
A whole pack of lions outweighing my seesaw
Crooning my tune after nobody queued it

Ratings are great, but the studio's empty
I'm fading away from the few who have kept me
Getting replaced by a beautiful memory
Channel one, the view for the many

Doo doo doo,.. Whenever I-

Director: CUT! Uh... alright, that was lovely... very tender
Clown: Thanks...
Director: Let's make- ahh... Bring it back to the fun part and we'll just call it a day

Laughter, applause, and abrasive bells!
Covered in glue, so I'll stick!
Everything's huge, everything's huge but my- car!
