lirik lagu jimmy webb - class clown
>
he was the funniest kid in the class
always drawin’ a crowd
loose with the girls, tight with the guys
he was the jester of our lives
when we were still in school
he had a place in the world
he was fearless
pushin’ down the crowded street at night
fearless to look at anyone
laughin’ at the timid locked up in their houses
pokin’ fun at bikers in their chains
he was fearless
that’s still the impression that remains of him
irreverent and fearless
but then he went to write songs in the city
all those jokes and parodies
that comical wit got bored just a little bit
he played with someone else’s wife
he broke the unspoken rule
they tried to save the girl’s life
but it was hopeless
and after that he kinda fell apart
playin’ the fool for what he’d done
laughin’ at the whole world, hidin’ any pit
old scratch and jack daniels in his veins
he was heartless
then from somewhere came the lonely sound of trains
and when he heard them he was homeless
hitched all the way from canada with his good right thumb
and a beard and a starving dog just like a real live bum
and i met him without knowing him the other day
i offered up my sacrifice and i sent him on his way
and i swear the man was laughin’
laughin’ in the middle of the crowded street alone
fearless to look at anyone
he was laughin’ at the people high up in their towers
rackin’ their ‘lectronic brains, mindless
he turned his back on such ill~gotten gains
and made for shelter ’cause he’s homeless
he turned his back on such ill~gotten gains
and made for shelter ’cause he’s homeless
he is homeless
