Texty: John Hiatt. Living a Little, Laughing a Little.

Laugh everyone at the clown
He's the best one in town
Ride on his merry-go-round
Spinning faster than sound

Laugh as the funny man cries
Though his makeup is smeared
Laugh at his funny pictures
As he paints out the years

Living just a little, laughing just a little
Ain't easy
Living just a little, laughing just a little
Ain't easy

Laugh everyone at the fool
With his heart in his hand
He can't quite understand
That he's less than a man

[Incomprehensible]
There's an ember of pride
Watch how he tries hard to hide
That he's dying inside

Living just a little, laughing just a little
Ain't easy
Living just a little, laughing just a little
Ain't easy

Living just a little, laughing just a little
Ain't easy
Living just a little, laughing just a little
Ain't easy

Living just a little, laughing just a little
Ain't easy
Living just a little, laughing just a little
Ain't easy

Living just a little, laughing just a little
Ain't easy
Living just a little, laughing just a little
Ain't easy
