Frank Sinatra

[Spoken intro]
This is a song about a couple of adult people who have spent, oh, quite a long time
together, till one day
one of em gets restless and decides to leave. Whether its the man or woman who left is unimportant.
Its a breakup.
Its a lovely marriage of words and music, written by Stephen Sondheim.
Isnt it rich? Are we a pair?
Me here at last on the ground and you in mid-air
Send in the clowns
Isnt it bliss? Dont you approve?
One who keeps tearing around and one who cant move
But where are the clowns? Send in the clowns
Just when I stopped opening doors
Finally finding the one that I wanted was yours
Making my entrance again with my usual flair
Sure of my lines
Nobodys there
Dont you love a farce? My fault, I fear
I thought that youd want what I want, sorry my dear
But where are the clowns? Send in the clowns
Dont bother theyre here
Isnt it rich? Isnt it queer?
Losing my timing this late in my career
But where are the clowns? Send in the clowns
Well, maybe next year
