Clown of Misery Lyrics


You and me, we go back a long time

I remember the trials

that we've been through

Somewhere down the line

you took a wrong turn

I still can't believe that it's true

How could you turn your back

and live the life

of something we were so strong against?

You changed your colors on your friends

I better not see you

on my side of the fence

[sub chorus]

Keep snorting that shit up your nose

Now you're just a wannabe

in gangster clothes

Still claim you're down

yet you act like a monkey

You can't fool us, Duane,

you're just a junkie

[chorus]

You traded in your bomber for a starter

While you were getting weak,

I was getting harder

I better not see you

around the likes of me

You're just another clown of misery

You gave up your boots with your ideals,

dropped your morals and turned to junk

The fire in your eyes is forever gone

From a proud white boy,

you turned into a punk

Was it really worth it? Losing it all?

Turning from your friends

into a life of crime

You're the lowest of the low,

everything I hate

A traitor to your own kind

[repeat sub chorus]

[repeat chorus]

I hear that you're looking decrepit;

that you're all skin and bones

You've got both legs up in a cast;

and you're scared to leave your home

You've ripped off one too many people

and now you're up to your ears in debt

And the last time

that I saw you at Hardee's

you ran like my little pet

[repeat sub chorus]

[repeat chorus]
