Conells - The Joke lyrics

rate me

Here's a man who can't take a joke.<br />

He wails and battles and bawls.<br />

Here's a man who lost his control.<br />

And I can see, we all can see, that he'll never get that joke.<br />

<br />

Crowds of many makes a man of steel,<br />

But alone he battles his rust.<br />

I can't tell if he's the only one.<br />

And I can see, we all can see, how he'll never get that joke.<br />

<br />

Why don't you buy time, toss-around time<br />

You want to get that joke.<br />

Why don't you find time, and realize<br />

The walls won't fall on you.<br />

<br />

The critics came and changed the Earth.<br />

Sticks and stones are all dust.<br />

Oh, ________________ just fade away.<br />

Words are cheap, all really deep, now we want to get that joke.<br />

<br />

Why don't you buy time, dance-around time<br />

You're really not that joke.<br />

Why don't you find time, and realize<br />

The walls won't fall on you.<br />

<br />

Empathize and hide your eyes,<br />

Let's just talk about us.<br />

Two friends walk into the dark.<br />

Got to be, when he can sleep, and we never get that joke.<br />

<br />

Why don't you but time, toss-around time<br />

We're really not that joke.<br />

Why don't you find time, and realize<br />

The walls won't fall on you.<br />

<br />

Why don't you find time, kick-around time<br />

You're really not that joke.<br />

Why don't you find time, and realize<br />

The walls won't fall on you.
