Lyrics

 * [Pinkie Pie]
 * Oh Ponyacci, Ponyacci,
 * What's got you so blue?
 * You're tired of performing
 * And so you think you're through.
 * But Ponyacci, Ponyacci,
 * Please don't look so down!
 * 'Cause the best way to cheer up a clown
 * Is with another clown!


 * Oh, Ponyacci's famous for
 * His many brilliant tricks.
 * He juggles knives, he swallows fire,
 * He spins plates 'round on sticks!
 * His corny jokes are legendary,
 * They're known the whole world round:
 * "I washed my dog with spot remover
 * And now he can't be found!"


 * Ponyacci: I suppose you're trying to convince me not to quit, too?
 * Twilight Sparkle: No, I'm just handling props and background music.


 * [Pinkie Pie]
 * So put on your costume and powder your face,
 * Give yourself a chance to finish your race!
 * Keep dancing on that stage until the curtain falls at last,
 * And laugh, Ponyacci, laaaaaauuugh!
