This is the story - of the laughing man
It's a sad, sad story - cause he didn't understand
There's not to much to laugh about - in this world no more
Still he laughed all day long - he's a crazy man, for sure

He just keeps on laughing - he laughs at me and you
He laughing at society - the crazy things we do
He's laughing at the war machine - destroyed the world he knew
He's laughing at the beauty queen - in her human zoo

He sits on a rooftop - he swears he'll never stop
But gravity can be a bitch - I know he's gonna drop
Down to the rest of us - and then he'll laugh no more
His comic vain must be insane - he's a crazy man, for sure

I'm the laughing man
I'm the Joker
I'm the laughing man
And it's okay
I'm the laughing man
I'm the Joker
I'm the laughing man
And it's okay

And suddenly - there's no sound
The laughing man is on the ground
He's come down - to the rest of us
He's paid the price - he's paid the cost
For laughing out to loud - and voices in the crowd, say
Who was this man - he made no sense
But still he pleased his audience - cause all he said was true
And you know, his last laugh is on you

I'm the laughing man
I'm the Joker
I'm the laughing man
And it's okay
I'm the laughing man
I'm the Joker
I'm the laughing man
And it's okay
I'm the laughing man
I'm the Joker
I'm the laughing man
And it's okay

This was the story - of the laughing man
It's a sad, sad story - cause he didn't understand
There's not much to laugh about - in this world no more
Still he laughed all day long - he's a crazy man, for sure

I'm the laughing man
I'm the Joker
I'm the laughing man
And it's okay
I'm the laughing man
I'm the Joker
I'm the laughing man
And it's okay
I'm the laughing man
I'm the Joker
I'm the laughing man
And it's okay
I'm the laughing man
I'm the Joker
I'm the laughing man
And it's okay
