Curtains up, lights and sparks Golden tickets, rising stars Race to the finish, flashing lights Adrenaline rush, crazy nights End of the stanza, quick pitstop Let's start again take it from the top
Road to addiction, highway to hell Lined with paparazzi, celebrity's spell Life in the fast lane, no matter the race Chemical crutches, to keep the pace Stay behind to catch, when the curtain's down And the makeup off - tears of the clown
Tragic comedy - this business we've made The perfect picture on endless parade Life imitates art, art imitates life And the life of the artiste burns out in the fight.
So many people get caught up in the whirlwind of fame and doing what it takes to stay in the spotlight..and they pay a heavy price for it..
"Tears of the clown" inspired by Eminem's - 'Beautiful' and all the 'sad clown' performers out there!
