Joke (I'm Laughing) Songtext
von Eddi Reader

Did you hear the one about
The one you′re now without?
Did it make you smile?
Did you hear the one about
The one you filled with doubt?
Was it worth your while?
The way you kick a life around
Deserving to be underground

What is this?
Explain, joke
Is it some kind of joke, joke?
I'm laughing, I′m laughing, I'm laughing
I'm laughing

Did you hear the one about
The one who fell from space?
One minute in the stars
The next minute lying on their face
She says, "I don′t know what to be"
And does she look younger than me?


What is this?
Explain, joke
Is it some kind of joke, joke?
I′m laughing, I'm laughing, I′m laughing
I'm laughing

For a tumble and
Something to do at night
You kick a life around, oh-oh-oh
For a fumble with
Someone you know at sight
Did you hear the one about
The one you′re now without?

She says, "I don't know what to be"
And does she look younger than me?
And does my makeup look all right?
Can you tell that I′ve been up all night?


What is this?
Explain, joke
Is it some kind of joke, joke?
I'm laughing, I'm laughing, I′m
What is this?
Explain, joke
Is it some kind of joke, joke?
I′m laughing, I'm laughing, I′m laughing
I'm laughing

I′m laughing

I'm laughing, ha-ha, ha-ha
Did you hear the one about
The one you′re now without?
Did you hear the one about
The one you're now without?
Did you hear the one about

The one you're now without?
Did you hear the one about
The one you′re now without?
Did you hear the one about

The one you′re now without?
Did you hear the one about
The one you're now without?
Did you hear the one about
The one you′re now without?
Did you hear the one about
The one you're now without?
