Lyrics
Intro
(Jester Lester)
Ha ha ha
Look at me now
A funny little man
Lester is my name
(Jester Lester)
Chorus
(Jester Lester)
Oh Jester Lester you silly clown
The happiest face in this whole town
Wearing my bells and the yellow crown
Dancing until I hit the ground
Hit the ground
(Jester Lester)
Verse 1
(Jester Lester)
Bright silk stockings
Jumping high across the marble palace halls
The princess laughs until her dinner spills onto the plates
A ruby red delight
Every joke I tell lands just right tonight
(Jester Lester)
Verse 2
(Jester Lester)
The prince is cold
Watching me with a stare of ice and bone
Stop your playing
Stop your swaying
He says she laughs too much at you
A common fool
(Jester Lester)
Pre-Chorus
(Jester Lester)
If she giggles one more time
Your head belongs to the lime
If you fail to make me grin
The chopping block is where you win
(Jester Lester)
Chorus
(Jester Lester)
Oh Jester Lester you silly clown
The happiest face in this whole town
Wearing my bells and the yellow crown
Dancing until I hit the ground
Hit the ground
(Jester Lester)
Verse 3
(Jester Lester)
Double bind
Lose your breath or lose your mind today
Sweat is dripping down my painted cheeks and nose
The steel is sharp
The edge is cold
I tell the funniest story ever told
(Jester Lester)
Bridge
(Jester Lester)
Princess smiles
Prince stays grim
Princess howls
Death for him
Death for me
Laughter is a luxury
Laughter is a felony
Laughter is the end of me
(Jester Lester)
Chorus
(Jester Lester)
Oh Jester Lester you silly clown
The happiest face in this whole town
Wearing my bells and the yellow crown
Dancing until I hit the ground
Hit the ground
Hook
(Chop chop)
Rolling off
Rolling off
Roll away now
The joke is over
(Goodbye Jester Lester)
