I started a joke which startled a whole world of quiet But I couldn't see that the joke was on me oh no I started to cry which started the whole world laughing Oh if I couldn't see that the joke was on me I've looked after skies right in my hands over my eyes And I fell out of bed hurting my head from things that I've said Till I finally died which started the whole world living Oh if I couldn't see that the joke was on me I've looked after skies right in my hands over my eyes And I fell out of bed hurting my head from things that I've said Till I finally died which started the whole world living Oh if I only see oh yea that the joke was on me Oh the joke was on me Oh the joke was on me
