Joker Man

Joker Man

An an an
Here comes the Joker man
He’s the King of the parties
Here comes the Joker man
(Dress like)
Solid gold

Sometimes
Your steps so heavy
Weight of life
On your shoulders
So hard to bear
Wanna stop
Wanna break away
Time not on your side yo
Curtains open
Public’s waiting
You got to be ready

Some days
Temptation so strong
To walk into the stage
No make up on
Show them your heart
Show them your face
Let them feel your rage
But…
Bright lights are on
Bright clothes are on
Emcee’s calling your name

Joker man
Buffoon of the court
Joker man
You’re the king’s fool
Hiding your pain
Behind the face of a clown
Hiding your tears
So no one knows when you drown
Joker man
Buffoon of the court

Oh oh
Here comes the joker man
King of the parties
Where the parties at?
Parties over here
Parties over there
All niters
Globetrotters
Sharp shooters
Life is a theatre
Call the hooters
Let’s have a party
We are just actors

Some time
You pray for a miracle
You go down on your knees
Lay bare your pain
Does he hear?
Does he feel?
One voice in a million
The light you see in the tunnel
Sometimes
The coming train

Some say
Everybody on the same train
Tell me
Who can feel?
Another man’s pain
Some compassion
And emotion
All that we can share
Alone everybody comes
Alone everybody leaves


Joker man
Buffoon of the court
Joker man
You’re the king’s fool
Hiding your pain
Behind the face of a clown
Hiding your tears
So no one knows when you drown
Joker man
You’re the king’s fool

He keeps walking the city streets
Hoping somehow to leave his trace
He keeps walking the city streets
Hoping someday to find his place
He keeps walking the city streets
Hoping for someone to embrace
He keeps walking the city streets
He’s the joker man
I’m the joker man….
