Verse 1:
I started a joke
Which started the whole world crying
But I didn't see
1, 4: ; 2, 3:
That the joke was on me, oh no
Verse 2:
I started to cry
Which started the whole world laughing
Oh, if I'd only seen
That the joke was on me
Chorus:
I looked at the skies
Running my hands over my eyes
And I fell out of bed
Hurting my head
N..
From things that I'd said
Verse 3:
'Til I finally died
Which started the whole world living
4: oh, yeah
Oh, if I'd only seen
That the joke was on me
repeat chorus
repeat verse 3
Coda:
That the joke was on me
end cold
Oh...
