Text: Stampead. A Clown Too Fat To Walk Across A Wire.

Try to drive on the highway with your eyes closed.
Try to go to church with something exposed.
Try to make a joke when you?re on your knees.
Try to fall in love without saying please.

Try to make a million bucks with only your smile.
Try not to act like an only child.
Try to call the president, once a day.
Try to think before you die the last words you'll say.

My friend, are these the first steps to the end,
my friend, are these the first steps to the end,
of a clown too fat to walk across a wire?

Try to take all your memories, put 'em in a box.
Try to walk thru the city wearing only your socks.
Try not to think about what they're gonna say.
Try to make a difference every single day.

Try to get drunk with just three bucks.
Try not to think about who your ex fucks.
Try and realize you only have a few friends.
Try to tell a cop, that it won?t happen again.

My friend, are these the first steps to the end,
my friend, are these the first steps to the end,
of a clown too fat to walk across a wire?

Try to be hated for just one night.
Try not to remember that your mothers always right.
Try to get rich by the time your 30.
Try to be quiet when your fighting dirty.

Try to take a joke a bit too far.
Try to walk away without a scar.
Try and pick a fight with someone you love.
Act like a clown when the going gets tough.

My friend, are these the first steps to the end,
of me?
