Everybody Laugh
Jay Ducharme
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Pity the clown with the pie in his face Finishing last in the human race He started slow out of the gate And crossed the line a little bit late He does what he's paid to do And he does it all for you Could you indulge him for a while He only wants to see you smile Everybody laugh Could you oblige him Everybody laugh Someone's falling from the flying trapeze Dying hard with the greatest of ease No net below to stop the descent A thrill is bought as life is spent Death is something all clowns know Still they go on with the show And as the body is carried away I can hear one of them say Everybody laugh What's the matter Everybody laugh How can the world be a giant circus When life seems like it's bound to hurt us Lions are loose and the crowd is fresh meat But nobody moves 'cause they paid for their seat The human cannon is shot to hell Still the barkers shout to sell Everybody laughs Step right up! Everybody laughs Hurry! Hurry! Everybody laughs Only a dollar! Ever look on a dollar bill At Washington's grin It's as if he knows something now He didn't know then Greed is such a cold desire But it sets the world on fire And as the circus tent goes up in smoke Remember it's all been a joke Everybody laugh Holy smoke Everybody laugh I can't hear you Everybody laugh What's the matter
