Connells - Joke, The 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.
