"Clown", Charmbracelet, 2002. Supposedly written about Carey’s brief relationship with Eminem
“
Who's gonna love you when it all falls down?
Who's gonna love you when your bankroll runs out?
Who's gonna care when the novelty's over?
When the star of the show isn't you anymore.
Nobody cares when the tears of a clown fall down
(I guess your mama never told you what goes around comes back around).
— Mariah Carey
