Bright lights flashing they cover up you Like a so many people so many problems so many reasons To buy another round drink it down just another night on the town With the big man money man better than the other man He got the plan with the million-dollar give a damn When nobody understand he'll become a smaller man The bright lights keep flashing And the women keep on dancing with the clowns yeah yeah yeah Pick me up when I'm down yeah yeah Rodeo clowns yeah yeah yeah Pick me up when I'm down yeah yeah The disco ball spinning all the music and the women And the shots and tequila man they say that they need ya What they really need Is just a little room to breathe A teeny boppin disco queen She barely understands and dreams of belly button rings And other kinds of things Symbolic of change But the thing that is strange is that the changes occur And now she's just a part of the herd yeah yeah yeah Man I thought that you heard yeah yeah The changes occurred yeah yeah yeah She's just a part of the herd yeah yeah Lights out shut down late night wet ground You walk by look at him but he can't look at you yeah You might feel pity but he only feels the ground because You understand booze but he only knows let down By the corner there's another one Reaching out a hand coming from a broken man Well, you try to live but he's done tryin Not dead but definitely dyin' With the rest of the clowns yeah yeah Rest of the clowns yeah yeah Sweeping the floors Open up the doors Yeah, turn on the lights Getting ready for the night Nobody's romancing 'Cause it's too early for dancing But here comes the music. ************************************ | h Hammer-on | p Pull-off | b Bend | / Slide up ************************************
