- I started a joke,
- which started the whole world crying,
- but I didn't see
- that the joke was on me, oh no.
-
- 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.
-
- Til I finally died,
- which started the whole world living.
- Oh, if I'd only seen
- that the joke was on me.

- Til I finally died,

- Oh, if I'd only seen, oh yeah,
- that the joke was one me, oh no,
- that the joke was one me, oooooh.
