Shoot, shoot
Shoot all the clowns
Shoot, shoot
Shoot all the clowns
(shoot, shoot)

I've been down at the crazy house
I've been playing with the cat and the mouse
I've been down, I've been down
I've seen the crazy people running around

Shoot all the clowns
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Shoot all the clowns
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down

Welcome to the circus where I fool around
I've got the killer smile, I'm a killer clown
Cover up your face - you've been found out
You laugh when there's nothing to smile about

Shoot all the clowns
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Shoot all the clowns
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down

Shoot, shoot
Shoot all the clowns
Shoot, shoot
Shoot all the clowns
(shoot, shoot)

[Rapped:]
Wanna gimme money? Well you better get ready
I'm a certified friend of John Paul Getty
I'm a fat stargazer, I'm an all-night raver
I'm an anything-you-wanna-be, if I can get your sympathy
Welcome to the circus, I'm a killer clown
Welcome to the circus, hey, gather 'round
2 sides to life, 2 sides to fun
The one who does it and the one that gets done

Shoot all the clowns
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Shoot all the clowns
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down

Shoot, shoot
Shoot all the clowns
Shoot, shoot
Shoot all the clowns
(shoot, shoot)

Shoot, shoot
Shoot all the clowns
(shoot, shoot)
Shoot, shoot
Shoot all the clowns

Shoot, shoot
(shoot, shoot, shoot)
Shoot all the clowns
(Gotta shoot, shoot down, down, down, down)
Shoot, shoot
(down, down, down, down)
Shoot all the clowns
(down, down, down)
Shoot, shoot
(down, down, down)
Shoot all the clowns

Shoot, shoot
Shoot all the clowns
(shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot)
