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 said

Till I finally died
Which started the whole world living
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 said

Till I finally died
Which started the whole world living
Oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was on me
Oh no, that the joke was on me
