The rodeo clowns get overlooked

RODEO CLOWN 
Words and Music by Daniel Curzon  

verse #1
NOW THE BRUISES COME, AND THE BRUISES GO.
SCRATCHES AND BROKEN BONES --THAT'S THE RODEO.
WISH YOU WERE SETTLED DOWN, LIKE FOLKS DO. 
THINK OF THE KID WITH THE KID WHO WISHED HE WAS YOU.

chorus:
JUST SOMEBODY'S DECOY,
YOU'RE NOT QUITE A COWBOY,
THOUGH SOME GALS KNOW YOU'RE AROUND. 
BUT, NO, THE BIG NOISE 
THAT'S FOR THE BIG BOYS. 
YOU'RE JUST A RODEO CLOWN, 
JUST A MOLDY OLD, LONELY OLD, SO-AND-SO RODEO CLOWN.

verse #3
THE BULLS GET MEAN, AND SOME RIDERS GET KICKED.
BRONCOS GET SPOOKED, AND HEIFERS GET SICK.
AND EVEN THRILLS CAN SEEM LIKE A RUT. 
SOMEONE'S GOT TO RUN IN AND SAVE THEIR BUTT.

repeat chorus

bridge:
BUT YOU?VE HAD YOUR DAY.
YOU'VE HAD SOME NIGHTS, MY FRIEND,
BUT NOW THAT IT'S GETTIN' NEAR THE END,
ALL THE IN-BETWEEN TIMES, ALL THE GOOD AND THE BAD --
YOU WOULDN'T GIVE UP ONE DAMNED DAY YOU'VE HAD,
NOT ONE DAMNED DAY YOU'VE HAD!

repeat chorus
