Send in the clowns
Oh! they are already here
they can't be much good the crowds
are uninterested
and look
the ******* clowns are playing with themselves
Oh! its called miming, imaginary acts and tomfoolery
Ah! I see, its what clowns do
you know silly things, clowning around,
making fools of themselves
its stupid really,
that's why they hide behind painted faces and masks
and rarely speak
That's why they are clowns
they never make sense
if they did, they wouldn't be clowns
they do take themselves quite seriously though
but you know the common knowledge
underneath the painted faces and masks
they are mad lonely and unhappy

Sad clown paradox is the contradictory association between comedy and mental disorders These comedic writers are characterised by feelings of deprivation and isolation in their early lives or present lives, where warped ideas and bitchiness evolves as a release for tension, removing feelings of suppressed physical rage through a verbal or written outlet To the clowns, It's an attention-getting thing, and that, in effect, is saying, 'Hey, look at me, folks, I'm getting your acceptance.'
