Go Ahead and Laugh Lyrics

They see the world through dull lifeless eyes
Walking in rhythm, often hypnotized
I can't understand why they don't know
That they're all part of a well rehearsed sideshow
Often outcast, often treated wrong
But they'll be looking up to me before too long
They all think that they have it made
Living their lives just to make the grade

So go ahead and laugh, the jokes on you
You should only see the world the way that I do –
Go ahead and laugh, I'm moving up fast
What will they say when I'm laughing last?

Nothing is easy, nothing's handed out
But I'll be the best at what I do, I have no doubt
Treating life as if it really isn't there
It always seems to them that I don't really care
Often outcast, often treated wrong
But they'll be looking up to me before too long
They all think that they have it made
Living their lives just to make the grade

So go ahead and laugh, ‘cause the joke's on you
You should only see the world the way that I do –
Go ahead and laugh, I'm moving up fast
What will they say when I'm laughing last?

Go ahead and laugh, the joke's on you
You should only see the world the way I do
Go ahead and laugh, I'm moving up fast
What will they say when I'm laughing last?

Life's too short to live for someone else......
Live each day just to satisfy yourself
They say they're free but they play by the rules
If that's the case then they're independent fools!
Often outcast, often treated wrong
But they'll be looking up to me before too long
They all think that they have it made
Living their lives just to make the grade

Go ahead and laugh, the joke's on you-
You should only see the world the way I do
Go ahead and laugh, I'm moving up fast
What will they say when I'm laughing last?

Go ahead and laugh, the joke's on you
You should only see the world the way I do
Go ahead and laugh, I'm moving up fast
What will they say when I'm laughing last?
Go ahead and laugh
