Bozo's In Love Again - Greg Brown

Bozo’s woes would fill a well

Yeah, he looks bad even when he’s doin' swell

His eyes are a definition of bereft

Yeah, he looks like somethin' that the cat left

Uh oh, the bozo, he’s in love again

Uh oh, the bozo, he’s in love again

Ho ho, he met her at the disco

On the west side of Saint Louie MO

She put her rawboned fingers to his pants

He said, «Baby, I can’t dance.»

Uh oh, the bozo, he’s in love again

Uh oh, the bozo, he’s in love again

Ah well, he drove back to Aloha Trailer Park

She did a lot of bright things in the dark

She told him she was never late for work

He said, «I love you»;

she said, «You poor jerk.»

Uh oh, the bozo, he’s in love again

Uh oh, the bozo, he’s in love again

Well, he followed her to the Hallmark Cards and Gifts

5-oh-9 he offered her a lift

5-oh-10 she got in her own car

5-oh-11 he was sitting in a bar

He was singin', uh oh, the bozo, he’s in love again

Uh oh, the bozo, he’s in love again

2:12 back in his hotel

He called her and a man said, «Go to hell.»

2:16 he gets a hamburger, edge of town

Broken-hearted and homeward bound

Uh oh, the bozo, he’s in love again

Uh oh, the bozo, he’s in love again

3:16 p.m.

a little roadside cafe

Nicotine and caffeine, his recent past away

The waitress said, «You look bad, and then she coughed,»

Bozo said, «What time do you get off?»

Uh oh, the Bozo, he’s in love again

Uh oh, the Bozo, he’s in love again

He just another bozo, he’s in love again

Just another b-b-bozo, he’s in love (he been all around the world, but he)

Just another bozo, he’s in love again

(He's a real sharp guy, but he’s) a bozo
