Neon hair that's much too bright,

something isn't right.

Children should all gather 'round

but they run and hide.

A smiling face painted in place

hiding the rage, here comes a mace.

The party has just begun

and kids eat to much cake.

We're gonna have some fun

so run for heaven's sake.

Hell sent in the clowns,

of masquerade and murder.

Yeah Hell sent in the clowns,

of laughter and of slaughter.

Hell sent in the clowns!

Lapel flowers squirt kids eyes,

now they've lost their sight.

Clowns are funny, yes we are,

laughing as you die.

Exploding cigars take off an arm,

cry in alarm, they're here to do harm.

The party has just begun

and kids eat to much cake.

We're gonna have some fun

so run for heaven's sake.

Hell sent in the clowns,

of masquerade and murder.

Yeah Hell sent in the clowns,

of laughter and of slaughter.

Hell sent in the clowns,

clowns are coming...

Hell sent in the clowns,

of masquerade and murder.

Yeah Hell sent in the clowns,

of laughter and of slaughter.
