Clown Girl

Welcome to the circus.

Presenting...

Clown Girl. She's so funny, don't you think?

C'mon, laugh at her,

Push her around!

She deserves it, after all,

She is only a Clown Girl.

She's got no real friends.

Just her words.

C'mon, laugh at her,

Push her around!

She deserves it, after all,

She is only a Clown Girl.

The clothes she wears,

So dark.

So different.

Always sitting alone.

She says she’s got problems...

That un-grateful girl.

Doesn't she realise what she has?

Life.

So hurt that un-grateful girl.

Tease that un-grateful girl.

Let her suffer for what she is.

She deserves it.

After all,

She is only a

Clown Girl.

About the work: "It's meant to be like a school yard. Teachers and students think that she’s just an attention seeker. They don't take her seriously. People stereotype her and judge her so she tries to pull herself away from the school community."
