Poor clown - his wife loved the ringmaster
Who knew how to make her heart beat faster
The clown he still loved her so badly
But she loved another, sadly
And felt that their marriage was a disaster.
Then the unicyclist winked at the clown
Then the unicyclist winked at the clown
And, just as the clown turned around,
Then the unicyclist winked at the clown
And, just as the clown turned around,
The wheel fell off
Then the unicyclist winked at the clown
And, just as the clown turned around,
The wheel fell off
Making the cyclist cough
Then the unicyclist winked at the clown
And, just as the clown turned around,
The wheel fell off
Making the cyclist cough
And he landed in a heap on the ground.

And she continues to frequently play away.
