[Chorus]
I'm never gonna say I'm sorry
I'm a clown for everyone
I'm never gonna let you down
I'm always here like a sun
I'm never gonna say I'm sorry
I'm a clown for everyone
I'm never gonna let you down
I'm always here like a sun

[Verse 1]
I'm a loser, that is a fact for sure
I am happy even if you don't want
To invite me out for a dance tonight
I'm not normal, I know it, I don't care

[Chorus]
I'm never gonna say I'm sorry
I'm a clown for everyone
I'm never gonna let you down
I'm always here like a sun
I'm never gonna say I'm sorry
I'm a clown for everyone
I'm never gonna let you down
I'm always here like a sun
I'm always here like a sun
I'm always here

[Verse 2]
Like a ghost I follow your steps so true
You don't have to bribe me or fill me up
Give me just a minute to shine with you
I can make you so happy, make you laugh

[Chorus]
I am never gonna say I'm sorry
For the essence of my soul
There's so many ways to change my life
'Cause I want to, woah-oh
I'm like a clown, I have fun for everyone
I'm like a clown, I have fun for everyone
I'm like a clown, I have fun for everyone
I'm like a clown, I have fun for everyone
I'm never gonna say I'm sorry
I'm a clown for everyone
I'm never gonna let you down
I'm always here like a sun
I'm never gonna say I'm sorry
I'm a clown for everyone
I'm never gonna let you down
I'm always here
I am never gonna say I'm sorry
I'm a clown for everyone

Ace of Base Is a Swedish pop group who scored a string of international hits in the early-to-mid 1990s. They’re best known for their upbeat reggae-tinged dance-pop songs, including “The Sign”, which was the biggest hit of 1994, according to The Billboard US chart.

The group’s core lineup consisted of producers Ulf “Buddha” Ekberg and Jonas “Joker” Berggren, along with singers Malin “Linn” Berggren and Jenny Berggren (the three Berggrens are siblings). In the early ’90s, their debut single “Wheel of Fortune” became a hit in Scandinavia, which led to the group connecting with producer Denniz Pop (who would later spawn the careers Backstreet Boys, Britney Spears, and Max Martin).

After the group’s 1992 debut Happy Nation became an international hit (going on to sell 21 million copies), it was re-released in North America in 1993 as The Sign. Three singles from the album became top five pop hits in the US, including “All That She Wants” (#2), “Don’t Turn Around” (#4), and “The Sign” (#1 for six weeks). The Sign went on to sell over 10 million copies.
