Clown In Broad Daylight - Ron Sexsmith

Standing on the side of the road near the overpass

With a sign around his neck that says

'Car wash, free balloons', he’s a clown in broad daylight

He’s waving at the people in cars who do a double take

And goad him on with their horns outside the car wash

Like a cartoon, he’s a clown in broad daylight

Raising eyebrows and emotions

He don’t phase some people at all

For everyday the circus is open, everything is alright

He’s just a clown in broad daylight

Everything is alright for against the backdrop of ordinary life

It’s the easy laugh that gets you through

Your working day and the hogwash

Sad but true, he’s a clown in broad daylight

Yeah, he’s waving at you

He’s a clown, a clown in broad daylight

Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, ohh

Da, da, on and on and on, yeah
