They All Laughed |
They all laughed at Christopher Columbus |
When he said the world was round |
They all laughed when Edison recorded sound |
They all laughed at Wilbur and his brother |
When they said that man could fly |
They told Marconi |
Wireless was a phony |
It’s the same old cry |
They laughed at me wanting you |
Said I was reaching for the moon |
But oh, you came through |
Now they’ll have to change their tune |
They all said we never could be happy |
They laughed at us and how! |
But ho, ho, ho! |
Who’s got the last laugh now? |
They all laughed at Rockefeller Center |
Now they’re fighting to get in They all laughed at Whitney and his cotton gin |
They all laughed Fulton and his steamboat |
Hershey and his chocolate bar |
Ford and his Lizzie |
Kept the laughers busy |
That’s how people are |
They laughed at me wanting you |
Said it would be, «Hello, Goodbye.» |
But oh, you came through |
Now they’re eating humble pie |
They all said we’d never get together |
Darling, let’s take a bow |
For ho, ho, ho! |
Who’s got the last laugh? |
Hee, hee, hee! |
Let’s at the past laugh |
Ha, ha, ha! |
Who’s got the last laugh now? |
