Send in the Clowns (From "A Little Night Music")

Send in the Clowns - Musical Cast Recording/Original Cast/Original Cast Recording

Isn't it rich?

Are we a pair?

Me here at last on the ground,

You in mid-air..

Send in the clowns.

Isn't it bliss?

Don't you approve?

One who keeps tearing around,

One who can't move...

Where are the clowns?

Send in the clowns.

Just when I'd stopped opening doors,

Finally knowing the one

That I wanted was yours.

Making my entrance

Again with my usual flair

Sure of my lines...

No one is there.

Don't you love farce?

My fault, I fear.

I thought that you'd want what I want...

Sorry, my dear!

And where are the clowns

There are to be the clowns

Don't father the hey

Just when I'd stopped

Opening doors,

Finally knowing

The one that I wanted was yours,

Making my entrance again

With my usual flair,

Sure of my lines,

No one is there.

Isn't it rich?

Isn't it queer?

Losing my timing this late

In my career?

And where are the clowns?

There ought to be clowns.

Well, maybe next year.
