A look at a life.
He makes people laugh,
Every night is his job.
His chosen profession,
And yet he wonders what could have been.
Show business takes its toll,
Once he tried a family life.
But the road is hard and long.
Wife and child at home.
Home is the road,
The road takes its toll as well.
So tonight he puts on his makeup once more,
This has become his life.
The laughs and smiles are his job.
But inside he is always hurting,
Because everyone is smiling
Except for him.
