| You’ve got to laugh though it’s not funny
|
| You’ve got to laugh, or you would surely cry
|
| Can’t buy a chance for love or money
|
| Can’t get arrested however hard you try
|
| Your heart is numb, you’ve screamed and shouted
|
| Banged on the door relentlessly
|
| They should have come, no doubt about it To lock you up and throw away the key
|
| You’ve got to laugh though it’s not funny
|
| You’ve got to laugh, or you would surely cry
|
| Can’t buy a chance for love or money
|
| Can’t get arrested however hard you try
|
| It’s so unfair how unfair this is You’ve done some things beyond the pale
|
| You’ve broken hearts and stolen kisses
|
| Still not enough to get you into gaol
|
| Well, it must feel like you’re invisible
|
| Say, do they know that you’re alive
|
| So what you gonna try now?
|
| Hey what you gonna try?
|
| And now it’s time to rest your poor head
|
| You tried it all, you tried it all
|
| You might as well have stayed in your bed
|
| You might as well be a flower on the wall
|
| You’ve got to laugh though it’s not funny
|
| You’ve got to laugh, or you would surely cry
|
| Can’t buy a chance for love or money
|
| Can’t get arrested however hard you try |
