How it feels to be an unfunny clown."
And he told them all why he looked so sad,
And he told them all why he felt so bad.
He told of Pain and Rain and Cold,
He told of Darkness in his soul,
And after he finished his tale of woe,

They laughed until they shook the trees...
And while the world laughed outside.
Cloony the Clown sat down and cried.”
