Send in the clowns / Que vengan los payasos

Isn't it rich? Are we a pair? Me here at last on the ground You in mid-air Send in the clowns Isn't it bliss? Don't you approve? One who keeps tearing around One who can't move Where are the clowns? Send in the clowns Just when I stopped Opening doors Finally knowing the one That I wanted was yours Making my entrance again With my usual flair Sure of my lines No one is there Don't you love the farce? My fault, I fear I thought that you'd want What I want, sorry my dear But where are the clowns? Send in the clowns Don't bother ... they're here Isn't it rich? Isn't it queer? Losing my timing This late in my career Where are the clowns? There ought to be clowns Well, maybe ... next year

'Send In The Clowns' is about a couple of adult people who have spent quite a long time together, till one day one of them gets restless and decides to leave. Whether it's the man or woman who left is unimportant. It's a breakup. This talented song is a lovely marriage of words and music, written by Stephen Sondheim. The title refers to a phrase reputedly used in a circus when an unforeseen disaster had occurred, with the clowns being sent in to distract the audience from the problem.

'Que Vengan Los Payasos' trata de una pareja adulta que ha pasado mucho tiempo juntos, hasta que un día uno de ellos se cansa y decide irse. Si es el hombre o la mujer quien se fue no tiene importancia. Es una separación. Esta talentosa canción -escrita por Stephen Sondheim- contiene un atractivo juego de palabras y música. El título se refiere a una frase utilizada en los circos cuando ocurre un desastre imprevisto y el presentador llama a los payasos para distraer al público.

Isn't it rich? Are we a pair?
Me here at last on the ground
You in mid-air
Send in the clowns
Isn't it bliss? Don't you approve?
One who keeps tearing around
One who can't move
Where are the clowns?
Send in the clowns

Just when I stopped
Opening doors
Finally knowing the one
That I wanted was yours
Making my entrance again
With my usual flair
Sure of my lines
No one is there

Don't you love farce?
My fault, I fear
I thought that you'd want
What I want, sorry my dear
But where are the clowns?
Send in the clowns
Don't bother ... they're here

Isn't it rich? Isn't it queer?
Losing my timing
This late in my career
Where are the clowns?
There ought to be clowns
Well, maybe ... next year

¿No es fantástico? ¿Somos dos?
Yo aquí finalmente en el suelo
Tú medio en el aire
Que vengan los payasos
¿No es glorioso? ¿No estás de acuerdo?
Uno que sigue tironeando
Otro que no se puede mover
¿Dónde están los payasos?
Que vengan los payasos

Justo cuando dejé
De abrir puertas
Para terminar dándome cuenta
Que quería la tuya
Hice mi entrada nuevamente
Con mi astucia usual
Convencido de mis palabras
Y no existe nadie allí

¿No te encanta la farsa?
Temo que sea mi culpa
Pensé que querrías
Lo que yo quiero, lo siento amor ...
Pero ¿dónde están los payasos?
Que vengan los payasos
No te molestes ... ya llegaron

¿No es fantástico? ¿No es excéntrico?
Perder el control
A esta altura del partido
¿Dónde están los payasos?
Tendría que haber payasos ...
Bueno, será ... la próxima
