now, often, i fall..upon my face
i'm lyin' there...like a fool all stumblin'
cause when it comes down to doin' booze
its funny...my senses start a-crumblin'

when i'm lit from drinkin' sessions
confused...my name in question
its really sad
behavior so bad
i'm gone, cause its too much, i've had
so i clown and i act like a cad
woo-ooh-ooh-oh

now, i've done bad things, quite unplanned
and i've gotten out of hand
three beers...i'm a clown
you don't want me around

now if i appear...too drunkenly
i'll tell you to mind your own damn business
then ask you...to go...outside...
and roll in the dirt...its an act of madness

soon, my arms reach out to clench you
though, i've...got nothin' 'gainst you
still. i'm gonna blow
oh...my anger grows
i'll hurt you...i'm smashed, don't you know ?
when i'm plastered, i put on a show
woo-ooh-ooh-oh

now, i've done bad things, quite unplanned
and i've gotten out of hand
three beers...i'm a clown
you don't want me around

just like my poor papa did
i take a snort and flip my lid
i'm just a moron on parade (i'm afraid)
and when my demons loom, i cry...

three beers...i'm a clown
you don't want me around
