The Joke
Let's try a wisecrack one-man show
Where no one is ever serious
I felt the same old spark, six-months stark
And told you just for fun, my sun who
Shines ever-bright, like pearls at midnight
It's tongue-in-cheek, whoa there she blows
If you could picture this (just picture it)
Add a knock-knock if you start to believe
What if we both held hands and played pretend
Throw in a kiss between lockers down the
Corridor, you're horrified
I'm mystified, don't start to choke
It's just a joke
Only a riddle a figment an installation
Serious for once
Sarcasm is just for the weak
Says who it fills my lungs
We're dancing and meant it to last, time goes so fast
But the chicken crossed the road at Melrose Place
And TV time cuts all things short, though not for naught
It's all I seek, at end-of-week, it's not so bleak
Never had said a word, so it's absurd
Food jokes mean nothing to my guitar
Spotlight got in your eye, looked at and all were blind
Throw in a smile during the interval where
Flowers would fly,
I'm victimized, you're just a bloke
It's just a joke
Only a riddle a figment a mind-o'-madness
Meant it for once
I tested six people at it
Only two (my friends) would smile a bit
And looking back at the holely audience
Even I don't find it
At all funny
Incidentally something amusing and to be taken lightly.
