The Joker - Anthony Newley

The joker is me!

There’s always a joker in the pack

There’s a cardboard clown

The poor painted fool falls on his back

And ev’ryone laughs when he’s down

There’s always a funny man in the game

But he’s only funny by mistake

But ev’ryone laughs at him, just the same

They don’t see his painted heart break

They don’t care as long as there is jester, just a fool

As foolish as he can be

There’s always a joker, that’s a rule

But fate deals the hand and I see

The joker is me!

There’s always a funny man in the game

But he’s only funny by mistake

But ev’ryone laughs at him, just the same

They don’t see his painted heart break

They don’t care as long as there is jester, just a fool

As foolish as he can be

There’s always a joker, that’s a rule

But fate deals the hand and I see

The joker is me!

The joker is me!

The joker is me!
