Laugh Man — текст песни (Harry Chapin)





Did you ever hear the one about...

Oh, God I love myself
When i`ve got it on
i know I`ll live forever babe
All my fears are gone

Then suddenly I`m dying
They turned the laugh track off
I`m drowning in the silence
Crucified by coughs

Oh, I am the laugh man
Half clown and half man
Half out and half in, oh mister can`t you see?
I`m s`posed to leave you laughing, so why don`t you laugh at me?

I started out my starvin`
Desperate for money
My belly crackin` dirty jokes
That did not come out funny
My neck stuck out so far
Like a gawky giraffe
Screamin` on a guillotine
"Come on, sucker, laugh!"

I am the guy who always catches the pie
I specialize in pratfalls
I am the goon who flashes the moon
A mouse in a house of catcalls

I`m your jester your juggler
Your joker your friend
I`m nothing more or less
Than a horse`s nether end!

My ego is a bubble
That I realize just broke
And alone without a microphone
My real life`s a joke

Did you ever hear the one about...
