Lyrics Last Laugh - Blue Rodeo

Last Laugh

I should have seen through it but you were so intent
A nervous breakdown on an overworked bed
You couldn’t wait to get over the edge
You were drunk on the silver when he took your crown
He took from you everything that wasn’t tied down
Well, you said he was an angel with the chains of gold
Too bad they weren’t strong enough to hold
The clock of the world is just a dream
Still I shouldn’t be jealous of the ones who lay flowers at your feet
Yeah, my desire has finally put you out of reach
You were drunk on the silver when he took your crown
He took from you everything that wasn’t tied down
Well, you said he was an angel with the chains of gold
Too bad they weren’t strong enough to hold
Now all your saviors wait their turn in line
While you sit in the corner and drink yourself blind
The last laugh has finally been had but it’s not what you think
The last laugh has finally been had and it don’t taste so sweet
Now you’re finally on your own
Last thing he said to you was see you around
You were drunk on the silver, you were drunk on the silver
You were drunk on the silver, you were drunk on the silver
You were drunk on the silver
Now you’re going to leave me with the last laugh
