if only you knew what was really going down
then you wouldn’t dismiss me as just a clown
for now all i can do is pretend i don’t care
and continue my awkward dance up the stair
i see you’re confused as a monkey banging gears
what’s with my flat-footing and my crocodile tears
what’s with the daisy pricked through my buttonhole
and why do i snort and gallop like some fool foal
well could it be that i don’t think you deserve to know
that you’re better to zip your lip and watch the show
because if you knew what was really going down
then you’d freak the hell out and honk on out of town

Good guess, Dolly, but no… it’s Joaquin Phoenix from the ‘Joker’ movie. 🙂

That would’ve been my third guess, the second being the original Joker film, but I am too much of a King fan to think of something else first.
