Make 'Em Laugh

歌詞

Will Though the world is so full of a number things, I'm sure we should all be as happy as... But are we? No. Definitely no, positively no, decidedly no. Uh uh. Short people have long faces, and long people have short faces. Big people have little humor, and little people have no humor at all! And in the words of that immortal god, Samuel J. Snodgrass, as he was about to be lead to the guillotine: Make 'em laugh, make 'em laugh Don't you know everyone wants to laugh? Ha ha! My dad said, "Be an actor, my son But be a comical one!" They'll be standin' in lines For those old honky tonk monkeyshines Now you could study Shakespeare and be quite elite And you can charm the critics and have nothin' to eat Just slip on a banana peel, the world's at your feet Make 'em laugh, make 'em laugh, make 'em laugh! Make 'em... make 'em laugh Don't you know everyone wants to laugh? My grandpa said, "Go out and tell 'em a joke But give it plenty of hoke!" Make 'em roar, make 'em scream Take a fall, butt a wall, split a seam You start off by pretending you're a dancer with grace You wiggle till they're gigglin' all over the place And then you get a great big custard pie in the face Make 'em laugh, make 'em laugh, make 'em laugh! Make 'em laugh, make 'em laugh Don't you know everyone wants to laugh? Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha... Ah ha ha ha ha ha... Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha... Make 'em laugh, ha ha! Make 'em laugh, ha ha! Make 'em laugh, ha ha ha! Make 'em laugh, make 'em laugh, make 'em laugh!
