A Common Lisp implementation has a certain minimum size, in particular because
CL as a language has a certain size. clisp is one of the smaller CL
implementations, and surely the one with the smallest memory requirements.
If you want something smaller than clisp, probably you want a language
different from Common Lisp?
  - You could try a copy of clisp from 1993; it did not include CLOS at
    that time. But you will have a lot of trouble to make it work on
    today's systems.
  - Or you could try a different language. Maybe ISLisp (which has an
    object system, but a smaller one), or Scheme (Guile if you want
    something modern, or SIOD if you want something small).
