They All Laughed Lyrics

They all laughed at Christopher Columbus
When he said the world was round;
They all laughed when Edison recorded sound;
They all laughed at Wilbur and his brother
When they said that man could fly;
They told Mar - co - ni wire-less was a pho - ney --

It's the same old cry. They laughed at me wan - ting you,
Said I was reach - ing for the moon;
But oh, you came through -- now they'll have to change their tune.
They all said we nev - er could be hap - py;
They laughed at us, and how.

But ho - ho - ho, who's got the last laugh now?
They all laughed at Rock - e - fel - ler Cen - ter,
Now they're fight - ting to get in;
They all laughed at Whit - ney and his cot - ton gin.
They all laughed at Ful - ton and his steam boat,
Her - shey and his choc - 'late bar;
Ford and his Liz - zie kept laugh - ers bu - sy,
M7 /9
That's how peo - ple are. They laughed at me want - ing you,
Said it would be hel - lo, good - bye;
But oh, you came through -- now they're eating hum - ble pie.
They all said we'd nev - er get to - geth - er;
Dar - ling, let's take a bow,
For ho - ho - ho, who's got the last laugh,
He - he - he, let's at the past laugh,
Ha - ha - ha, who's got the last laugh now?
