The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and the empty skies
The first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move in my hands
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command my love
The first time ever I lay with you
I felt your heart so close to mine
And I knew our joy would fill the Earth
And last, and last, and last till the end of time
The first time ever I saw your face
Your face
Your face
Your face
Isn’t it rich?
Are we a pair?
Me here at last on the ground
You in mid-air
Send in the clowns
Isn’t it bliss?
Don’t you approve?
One who keeps tearing around
One who can’t move
Where are the clowns?
Send in the clowns
Just when I stopped
Opening doors
Finally knowing the one that I wanted was yours
Making my entrance again with my usual flair
Sure of my lines
Noone is there
Don’t you love a farce?
My fault, I fear
I thought that you’d want what I want
Sorry my dear
But where are the clowns?
Send in the clowns
Don’t bother
They’re here
Isn’t it rich?
Isn’t it queer?
Losing my timing this late
In my career
Where are the clowns?
There ought to be clowns
Well, maybe next year
I’ve been looking for an original sin
One with a twist and a bit of a spin
And since I’ve done all the old ones
‘Til they’ve all been done in
Now I’m just looking
Then I’m gone with the wind
Endlessly searching for an original sin
You can dance forever, you got a fire in your feet
But will it ever be enough? You know that it’ll never be enough
You can fly in Neverland and never need to sleep
But will it ever be enough? You know that it’ll never be enough
It’s not enough to make the nightmares go away
Not enough to make the tears run dry
It’s not enough to live a little better every day
Everything that they taught us was nothing but lies
Everything they they brought us was nothing but bribes
All I wanted was a piece of the night
I never got an equal share
When the stars are out of sight
And the moon is down
The natives are so restless tonight
I’ve been looking for an original sin
One with a twist and a bit of a spin
And since I’ve done all the old ones
‘Til they’ve all been done in
Now I’m just looking
Then I’m gone with the wind
Endlessly searching for an original sin
You can lose yourself in pleasure ’til your body’s going numb
But will it ever be enough? You know that it’ll never be enough
You can always take whatever you conceivably could want
But will it ever be enough? You know that it’ll never be enough
It’s not enough to make the nightmares go away
Not enough to make the tears run dry
Not enough to live a little better every day
Everything that they taught us was nothing but lies
Everything that they brought us was nothing but bribes
All I wanted was a piece of the night
It never had to get so dark
When the stars are out of sight
And the moon is down
The natives are so restless tonight
I’ve been looking for an original sin
One with a twist and a bit of a spin
And since I’ve done all the old ones
‘Til they’ve all been done in
Now I’m just looking
For an original sin
I’ve been looking for the ultimate crime
Infinite victims, infinitesimal time
And I’m so very guilty for no reason or rhyme
Now I’m just looking
And I’m killing some time
Endlessly searching for the ultimate crime
I’ve been looking for an original sin
One with a twist and a bit of a spin
And since I’ve done all the old ones
‘Til they’ve all been done in
Now I’m just looking
Then I’m gone with the wind
Endlessly searching for an original sin
I’m applying for a license to thrill
Going out on the edge, moving in for the kill
And there’ll be hell to pay someday
Put it all on the bill
‘Cause we’ll always be paying and paying until
We’re beyond expiration with a license to thrill
I’ve been looking for an original sin
Wake to see
Your true emancipation is a fantasy
Policies
Have risen up and overcome the brave
Greatness dies
Unsung and lost, invisible to history
Embedded spies
Brainwashing our children to be mean
You don’t have long
I am on to you
The time, it has come to destroy
Your supremacy
You don’t have long
I am on to you
The time, it has come to destroy
Your supremacy
Supremacy
Supremacy
I have this feeling that my luck is none too good
This sword here at my side don’t act the way it should
Keeps calling me its master, but I feel like its slave
Hauling me faster and faster to an early, early grave
And it howls, it howls like hell
I’m told it’s my duty to fight against the law
That wizardry’s my trade and I was born to wade through gore
I just want to be a lover, not a red-eyed screaming ghoul
I wish it’d picked another to be its killing tool
Black blade! Black blade!
Forged a billion years ago
Black blade! Black blade!
Killing so its power can grow
There’s death from the beginning to the end of time
And I’m the cosmic champion and I hold a mystic sign
And the whole world’s dying and the burdens mine
And the black sword keeps on killing ’til the end of time
Black blade! Black blade!
Bringing chaos to the world we know
Black blade! Black blade!
And its using me to kill my friends
Black blade! Black blade!
Getting stronger so the world will end
Black blade! Black blade!
Forcing my mind to bend and bend
The black blade
Forged a million billion years ago
My cosmic sword goes on for eternity
Carving out destiny
Bringing in the lords of chaos
Bringing up the beasts of Hades
Sucking out the souls of heroes
Laying waste to knights and ladies
My master is my slave
Ha ha ah ha ah ha!
