Percy Faith

Percy Faith (April 7, 1908 – February 9, 1976) was a Canadian bandleader, orchestrator, composer and conductor, known for his lush arrangements of pop and Christmas standards. He is often credited with popularizing the "easy listening" or "mood music" format. Faith became a staple of American popular music in the 1950s and continued well into the 1960s. Though his professional orchestra-leading career began at the height of the swing era, Faith refined and rethought orchestration techniques, including use of large string sections, to soften and fill out the brass-dominated popular music of the 1940s.[citation needed] more »

See the funny little clown
See him laughin' as you walk by
Ev'rybody thinks he's happy 
Cause you never see a tear in his eye
No one knows he's cryin'
No one knows he's dyin' on the inside 
Cause he's laughin' on the outside
Mm no one knows, no one knows
See the funny little clown
He's hidin' behind a smile
They all think he's laughin' 
But I know he's really cryin' all the while
How his heart is achin'
How his heart is breakin' on the inside
But he keeps laughin' on the outside
Mm no one knows, no one knows
This funny little clown
You never used to see him around
Without his girl beside him 
To love and guide him
Until one day his girl just walked away 
And to this very day he says he never loved her anyway 
Mm and no one knows except for me
Because you see 
The funny little clown is me
