A laugh for the love of a friend
A laugh for the fools in the eyes of the world
The love that will never end
Ha Ha Ha...
Let's hear a laugh for the man of the world
Who thinks he can make things work
Tried to build the New Jerusalem
And ended up with New York
Ha Ha Ha...
A laugh for the sun redballing
Through the thermal inversion haze
A laugh for the nuclear good-time boys
Numbering all our days
Ha Ha Ha...
A laugh for the newsprint nightmare
A world that never was
Where the questions are all "why?"
And the answers are all "because."
Ha Ha Ha...
A laugh for the dogs barking at our heels
They don't know where we've been
A laugh for the dirty window pane
Hiding the love within
Ha Ha Ha...
Tapping our feet to an ancient tune
A laugh for the time gone by
A laugh for me and Kitty in the delivery room
Waiting for the child's first cry
Ha Ha Ha...
A laugh for the way my life has gone A laugh for the love of a friend A laugh for the fools in the eyes of the world The love that will never end Ha Ha Ha... Let's hear a laugh for the man of the world Who thinks he can make things work Tried to build the New Jerusalem And ended up with New York Ha Ha Ha... A laugh for the sun redballing Through the thermal inversion haze A laugh for the nuclear good-time boys Numbering all our days Ha Ha Ha... A laugh for the newsprint nightmare A world that never was Where the questions are all "why?" And the answers are all "because." Ha Ha Ha... A laugh for the dogs barking at our heels They don't know where we've been A laugh for the dirty window pane Hiding the love within Ha Ha Ha... Tapping our feet to an ancient tune A laugh for the time gone by A laugh for me and Kitty in the delivery room Waiting for the child's first cry Ha Ha Ha... Explain Request ×
