You might think it's a joke, but it ain't funny. To hurt someone who's so in love with you. A clown puts his make-up on upside down. So he wears a smile even when he wears a frown. You might think I'm here when you put me down. But actually I'm on the other side of town.
The Other Side Of Town Lyrics. Why do you always seem to criticize me. Seems like everything I do just turns out wrong. Why don't you come on out and despise me. So I could pack my bag and baby I'd be gone. Remember when you used to call me honey. I'd turn around and call you honey too. You might think it's a joke, but it ain't funny.
A clown puts his make-up on upside down. So he wears a smile even when he wears a frown. You might think I'm here when you put me down. But actually I'm on the other side of town. My body's in this room with you just catching hell.
