Lyrics Laughing With - Regina Spektor

Laughing With

No one laughs at God in a hospital
No one laughs at God in a war
No one’s laughing at God when they’re starving or freezing or so very poor
No one laughs at God when the doctor calls after some routine tests
No one’s laughing at God when it’s gotten real late
And their kid’s not back from that party yet
No one laughs at God when their airplane starts to uncontrollably shake
No one’s laughing at God when they see the one they love
Hand in hand with someone else and they hope they’re mistaken
No one laughs at God when the cops knock on their door
And they say we got some bad news, sir
No one’s laughing at God when there’s a famine, fire or flood
But God can be funny
At a cocktail party when listening to a good God-themed joke
Or when the crazies say He hates us And they get so red in the head you think they’re 'bout to choke
God can be funny
When told he’ll give you money if you just pray the right way
And when presented like a genie who does magic like Houdini
Or grants wishes like Jiminy Cricket and Santa Claus
God can be so hilarious
Ha ha Ha ha No one laughs at God in a hospital
No one laughs at God in a war
No one’s laughing at God when they’ve lost all they’ve got
And they don’t know what for
No one laughs at God on the day they realize that the last sight they’ll ever
see
Is a pair of hateful eyes
No one’s laughing at God when they’re saying their goodbyes
But God can be funny
At a cocktail party when listening to a good God-themed joke
Or when the crazies say He hates us And they get so red in the head you think they’re 'bout to choke
God can be funny
When told he’ll give you money if you just pray the right way
And when presented like a genie who does magic like Houdini
Or grants wishes like Jiminy Cricket and Santa Claus
God can be so hilarious
No one laughs at God in a hospital
No one laughs at God in a war
No one laughs at God in a hospital
No one laughs at God in a war
No one laughing at God in a hospital
No one’s laughing at God in a war
No one’s laughing at god when they’re starving or freezing or so very poor
No one’s laughing at God
No one’s laughing at God
No one’s laughing at God
No one’s laughing at God
We’re all laughing with God
