Question: what is the meaning of the lyrics send in the clowns?
Answer: Lyrics. The lyrics of the song are written in four verses and a bridge and sung by Desirée. ... "Send in the Clowns" was never meant to be a soaring ballad; it's a song of regret. And it's a song of a lady who is too upset and too angry to speak– meaning to sing for a very long time.
