ofE went bad. AThey lost their nerve, EThey just went straight. DThey didn’t have the balls to hold it down and
they brought everybody else right down with them While clowns must stand. So welcome. Welcome to the scene! You’ve all got to come out and have a drink with me. I’ll buy round one, you buy round two, you buy round three. We’ll make a toast to absent friends and better days, to remembering and being remembered as brave and not as a bunch of whining jerks. To the quitters and the complainers, if we never meet again remember this –- All the world is a stage dive All the world loves a clown. You know that clowns hate them and how hard it is to get a clown out of the house and up on the stage. But tonight you’ve come, you’re here, I’m so glad. Don’t forget how it feels kids and don’t crap out. Don’t lose your nerve. Do not go straight. You must testify or I’m going to come to your house to punch you in the mouth ‘cause clowns must stand. When a clown goes straight all clowns are hurt. When a clown abandons his passion all his friends end up with egg on the face. Clowns must stand.
