Nobody's laughing.

lyrics

I´ve been working on this joke
for years, but everyone breaks out in tears
when they hear what I've to say.

There was this girl at the shopping mall,
I stood next to her so tall,
when she cast a smile on me.

I could say: How´s the shopping going?
She´d say: You´re not half as funny as you think.
And we would laugh.

I never said a word.

I´ve been working on this joke
for years, oh, when it comes to people
I´m a tool.

I was young and with friends
I walked around the blocks
displacing future and past tense.

And they wore misty, bitter faces
said: We make this world a better place.

Made me honestly laugh, well,
sometimes it is just too much -
they poked the fun right out of me.

I´ve been working on this joke
for years of a man who wants
to see the world in peace.

It´s yours to seize.
