Two Rings Shy
I ain’t gonna get dressed up, just to be your clown
Ain’t gonna paint this pretty face, like you paint the town
I ain’t wastin’ good mascara, just to watch it runnin’ down
I ain’t gonna get dressed up, just to be your clown
I could spend an hour on my makeup and my hair
Shoes to tall, dress too small and lacy underwear
Go down to the bar, and buy myself a drink
Hang there all perfect, like a puppet on a string
I ain’t gonna get dressed up, just to be your clown
Ain’t gonna paint this pretty face, like you paint the town
I ain’t wastin’ good mascara, just to watch it runnin’ down
I ain’t gonna get dressed up, just to be your clown
You got girls that swing and dance, I hear ones an acrobat
You got ‘em swinging from the chandelier, well honey I don’t swing like that
The main attraction’s leaving, let the sideshow pay the rent
I ain’t gonna get dressed up, just to be your clown
Ain’t gonna paint this pretty face, like your paint the town
I ain’t wastin’ good mascara, just to watch it runnin’ down
I ain’t gonna get dressed up, just to be your clown
I ain’t gonna get dressed up, just to be your clown
Tiptoe ‘cross the tightrope, till you turn me upside down
Cut the cable, pull the net, just to let me hit the ground
I ain’t gonna get dressed up, just to be your clown
