Joni Mitchell - Dancin` Clown

No, you couldn't call Jesse a babe in the woods
He's just weak in self defense
'Cause he's so thin skinned
He can't take a joke at his expense
You're a push button window, says Rowdy Yates
I can run you up and down
Anytime I want
I can make you my dancin'
My dancin' clown
You're my dancin' clown
Dancin' dancin'
My dancin' clown
Dancin'
You're my dancin' clown
Dancin' dancin' dancin'
My dancin' clown
Rowdy Yates is as bold as Jove
He's all chide and snide and bluff
Stuck in the romantic tradition
Of acting rough and tough
You're always charging thru, says Jesse
Nervous, lookin' all around
To see who's seein' him bein' a dancin'
A dancin' clown
He's a dancin' clown
Dancin' dancin'
A dancin' clown
Dancin'
He's a dancin' clown
Dancin' dancin' dancin'
A dancin' clown
Cherchez la femme
Whenever love comes around
Someone's a dancin' clown
Cherchez la femme
Whenever hearts start to pound
Someone's a dancin' clown
Down the street comes last word Suzie
She's high yellow lookin' top nice
You hear the swoosh of jungle blades
And the crackle of northern ice
Hot damn says Rowdy lookin' up
Yum says Jesse lookin' down
How would you like to be her dancin'
Her dancin' clown
Be her dancin' clown
Dancin' dancin'
Her dancin' clown
Dancin'
Be her dancin' clown
Dancin' dancin' dancin'
Her dancin' clown
Cherchez la femme
Whenever love comes to town
Someone's a dancin' clown
Cherchez la femme
Wherever hearts start to pound
Someone's a dancin' clown
No, you couldn't call Jesse a babe in the woods
He's just weak in self defense
'Cause he's so thin skinned
He can't take a joke at his expense
You're a push button window, says Rowdy Yates
I can run you up and down
Anytime I want
I can make you my dancin'
My dancin' clown
You're my dancin' clown
Dancin' dancin'
My dancin' clown
Dancin'
You're my dancin' clown
Dancin' dancin' dancin'
My dancin' clown
Rowdy Yates is as bold as Jove
He's all chide and snide and bluff
Stuck in the romantic tradition
Of acting rough and tough
You're always charging thru, says Jesse
Nervous, lookin' all around
To see who's seein' him bein' a dancin'
A dancin' clown
He's a dancin' clown
Dancin' dancin'
A dancin' clown
Dancin'
He's a dancin' clown
Dancin' dancin' dancin'
A dancin' clown
Cherchez la femme
Whenever love comes around
Someone's a dancin' clown
Cherchez la femme
Whenever hearts start to pound
Someone's a dancin' clown
Down the street comes last word Suzie
She's high yellow lookin' top nice
You hear the swoosh of jungle blades
And the crackle of northern ice

Be her dancin' clown
Dancin' dancin'
Her dancin' clown
Dancin'
Be her dancin' clown
Dancin' dancin' dancin'
Her dancin' clown
Cherchez la femme
Whenever love comes to town
Someone's a dancin' clown
Cherchez la femme
Wherever hearts start to pound
Someone's a dancin' clown
