I started a joke

Which started the whole world crying

But I didn't see

That the joke was on me

I started to cry

Which started the whole world laughing

Oh if I'd only seen

That the joke was on me

I looked at the skies

Running my hands over my eyes

And I fell out of bed

Hurting my head from things that I'd said

Till I finally died

Which started the whole world living

Oh if I'd only seen

That the joke was on me

I looked at the skies

Running my hands over my eyes

And I fell out of bed

Hurting my head from things that I'd said

Till I finally died

Which started the whole world living

Oh if I'd only seen

That the joke was on me

That the joke was on me

That the joke was on me
