The Punch Line Songtext
von The Mighty Mighty Bosstones

Sometimes
Sometimes you′ve got to be the punch line
Well and sometimes
Sometimes you get to tell the joke
There's no difference on the end that you end up on
I′ve got a preference I'll defend right, right over wrong
Or even more

I won't wait ′til they say when
Or wait for them to tell me when I can, why would I wait for them
If I waited for them then
I′d be no different than them
And I'm so certain that I am


Someone
Someone will try to be the hammer
And someone
Somebody ends up as the nail
Who cares what end you end up on
Hammers break and nails bend
I′ll still take right, right over wrong
And that's what I′ll defend
That's what I′m defending

I won't wait 'til they say when
Or wait for them to tell me when I can, why would I wait for them
If I waited for them then
I′d be no different than them
And I′m so certain that I am

I won't wait ′til they say when
Or wait for them to tell me when I can, why would I wait for them
If I waited for them then
I'd be no different than them
And I′m so certain that I am

Sometimes you've got to be the punch line (Or wait for them to tell me when I can)
Sometimes you get to tell the joke (Why would I wait for them)
Sometimes you′ve got to be the punch line (I'd be no different than them)
And I'm so certain that I am
Certain that I am
