The Joker's Wild Lyrics

Sound the trumpets for the princess and her fool
A joke, a jester just to make her smile
Silver bells on his hat and on his pointed shoes
Tears rolling down his cheeks
As he dances in the aislesWatch the little funny man stand on his head
Watch the silly minstral with his empty arms spread
His life hanging by a threadThe joker's wild
Can't you see by his eyes
The joker's wild
Can't you see through his disguise
The joker's wild about youWatch him juggle on one foot
Maybe a riddle for a damsel in distress
He's just a clown in a court of thieves
Who conspire for a kiss
It's off with his head dare he show his lonelinessWatch the little funny man walk on his hands
See the little princess laugh as hard as she can
Her every wish is his commandThe joker's wild
Can't you see by his eyes

The joker's wild
Can't you see through his disguise
The joker's wild about youWatch the little funny man stand on his head
Watch the silly minstral with his empty arms spread
His life hanging by a threadThe joker's wild
Can't you see by his eyes
The joker's wild
Can't you see through his disguise
The joker's wild about you
