It Only Makes Me Laugh |
I don’t know why I feel this way |
I don’t know if it’s right or wrong |
To laugh at misfortune |
Darkness can never last too long |
Every time I think I’m falling |
And there’s nobody around to hold me up |
And it seems like the world has come to an end |
I look for miles, but not a face is friendly |
Then suddenly, a hole opens up in the ground |
The bottom of the hole is a raging fire |
I try to jump over, but there’s no way |
The next thing I know, I’m going down |
Does it hurt? |
Oh, it really doesn’t matter |
Does it burn? |
Oh, no, I don’t feel a thing |
Does it sting? |
Oh, yeah, it really doesn’t matter |
Does it hurt? |
Oh, I don’t give a damn |
When I find myself falling and I hit the bottom |
It only makes me laugh |
Only makes me laugh |
When I go down the hole and I hit the bottom |
The last time that I fell in love |
The love was milk and honey |
But the milk turned sour |
The woman became a monster |
And everyone I knew had become a stranger |
Then the room went black and my luck was spent |
The floor opened up—down I went |
Does it hurt? |
Oh, it really doesn’t matter |
Does it burn? |
Oh, no, I don’t feel a thing |
Does it sting? |
Oh, yeah, it really doesn’t matter |
Does it hurt? |
Oh, I don’t give a damn |
When I find myself falling and I hit the bottom |
It only makes me laugh |
Only makes me laugh |
When I go down the hole and I hit the bottom |
It only makes me laugh |
Coming right back |
'Cause you can’t keep me down |
Can’t keep me down |
Oh, in the ground |
Does it hurt? |
Oh, it really doesn’t matter |
Does it burn? |
Oh, I don’t feel a thing |
I don’t mind just a little pain |
Ooh, oh, yeah |
Whoa… |
Remembering when I was a young man |
How everything seemed to turn against me |
I didn’t know a soul, it was an alien place |
The sun was covered by a dark cloud |
And though I tried, I couldn’t find a way to escape |
The only way to go: straight down |
I don’t know why I feel this way |
I don’t know if it’s right or wrong |
To laugh at misfortune |
Darkness can never last too long… |
When you laugh in its face |
