Magnum - Too Many Clowns Lyrics






So play the game
We're all beginners
Stand by the flame
There'll be no winners
No preacher here
Will answer your questions
They'll run in fear
At some suggestions

Look now the circus is here
Too many clowns
Waiting for freedom to disappear

The old man wonders where he'll sleep tonight
Young girl on the streets will have to fight
Mother and her children finally lost
Fallen king will never know the cost

Excuse me please
If I'm outspoken
You've lost your keys
Your locks are broken
You walk alone
Down empty hallways
You hide behind
Your private doorways

Someone keeps changing the rules
You must believe
That we could be someone else's fool

The old man wonders where he'll sleep tonight
Young girl on the streets will have to fight
Mother and her children finally lost
Fallen king will never know the cost

The old man wonders where he'll sleep tonight
Young girl on the streets will have to fight
Mother and her children finally lost
Fallen king will never know the cost

The old man wonders where he'll sleep tonight
Young girl on the streets will have to fight
Mother and her children finally lost
Fallen king will never know the cost

  5. A.... D....

    Well done boys!!! Great riff,good song! Magnum is still a great band!  Keep on playing!!!

  6. B.... V....

    Excellent "we'll blow you away" song, classic riff à la AC DC, but once again with sudden changes of moods and surprising angles as only Magnum can come up. Very nice guitarsolo. If this is the worst song on the album, as someone below claims, this album must be amazingly phenomenally historically very very very goooooooooood :)

    B.... V....

    +Benoit Vanhees it was a good album.great melodies in it.well no suprise from magnum.most of their albums had lot of em. Funny thing: still think thats teh worst sonf from this album, after almost 2 yeras from its release.Hahaha! :P Yeah i know i must be crazy! :P
    Anywayz, Keep rockin Benoit, keep rockin Magnum!!

  7. T.... H....

  8. K.... N....

    -Magnum- *Don't Fall Asleep* Great song from the new album :)

  9. J.... W....

    fantastic new album from the boys, but this is the worst song from ''ESCAPE FROM THE SHADOW GARDEN", imo! still a nice video to watch, though.
    ''Wisdom’s Had its Day'', ''Live ‘Til You Die'' and ''Falling From The Big Plan'' ,best songs from new album imo.
    Keep on Rockin Magnum!Thnx for the inspiration!

    J.... W....

    Nahh, that´s the most rocking one on the album!

    J.... W....

    If this is the worst song, the album simply must be phenomenally excellent

    J.... W....

    +Benoit Vanhees well...its a fantastic album mate.still listeling to it after all this time :) new album comin out in a few days.cant wait!

    J.... W....

    @Jimmy Weed Wow yet another output ? These guys are going for the Guinness World Book record of number of studio albums... And even if Magnum is "softer" than the old Rainbow, see where a Dio fan and Blackmore admirer meet :0)

  10. I.... R....

    Al, Tony, Bob, Mark & Harry, you guys just keep getting better and better! Well done to you all on yet another classic tune (great riff Tony) I'd also like to say to Mark and Sheena at MadHat Studios..yet again you have produced a top class album!! :)

  11. N.... M....

  12. r.... ....

    Nice one Al.  Thanks for sharing.

  13. k.... f....

    looking forward to tour hearing these great new shadow garden tracks live,

  14. R.... B....

    Hehe nice compilation video of the last tour :)  And as the album climbs the charts it can be used as a video clip for channels like Scuzz and kerrang to promote the album.

    R.... B....

    What was the highest position it reached ?

  15. I.... W....

    Great Al!!
