If I Can Make People Smile, Then

If By Chance Some Day You're Not Feeling Well And You Should Remember Some Silly Thing I've Said Or Done And It Brings Back A Smile To Your Face Or A Chuckle To Your Heart, Then My Purpose As Your Clown Has Been Fulfilled.

I'd Have Avoided Some Of The Pain If I Could. Anyone Would. But I Wouldn't Have Missed Knowing Any Of The People-even The Ones Whose Leaving Hurt Most. In Fact, The Only Thing I'm Sorry About Is That I Didn't Meet One Particular Guy, A Clown Named Joe Skelton. You Know, He Sure Picked The Right Profession. I Mean, A Clown's Got It All. He Never Has To Hold Back: He Can Do As He Pleases. The Mouth And The Eyes Are Painted On. So If You Wanta Cry, You Can Go Right Ahead. The Make Up Won't Smear. You'll Still Be Smiling. . . .

People Think I Am Dead Because They Haven’t Seen Me Around For Awhile. I’m Not Dead, I’m Very Much Alive, As You Can See. Although, There Are Two Things I Do Before I Get Up Every Morning. I Look Around And If I Don’t Smell Flowers Or See Candles Flickering I Go Ahead And Get Up.

I've Put On A Lot Of Weight... I Only Weighed Six And A Half Pounds When I Was Born.

I Only Come To Life When There Are People Watching.
