Two Rings Shy

I ain't gonna get dressed up, just to be your clown
 Ain't gonna paint this pretty face, like you paint the town
 I ain't wastin' good mascara, just to watch it runnin' down
 I ain't gonna get dressed up, just to be your clown
 I could spend an hour on my makeup and my hair
 Shoes to tall, dress to small, and lacy underwear
 Go down to the bar, buy myself a drink
 Dang they're all perfect, like a puppet on a string
 I ain't gonna get dressed up, just to be your clown
 Ain't gonna paint this pretty face, like you paint the town
 I ain't wastin' good mascara, just to watch it runnin' down
 I ain't gonna get dressed up, just to be your clown
 You got girls that sing and dance, I hear one's an acrobat
 You got 'em swinging from the chandelier, well honey I don't swing like that
 The main attraction's leaving, let the side show pay the rent
 Take this diamond back and you'll be two rings shy of the big top tent
 I ain't gonna get dressed up, just to be your clown
 Ain't gonna paint this pretty face, like you paint the town
 I ain't wastin' good mascara, just to watch it runnin' down
 I ain't gonna get dressed up, just to be your clown
 ♪
 I ain't gonna get dressed up, just to be your clown
 Tiptoe 'cross the type-rope, 'til you turn me upside down
 Cut the cable, pull the net, just to let me hit the ground
 I ain't gonna get dressed up, just to be your clown
