That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore

Park the car at the side of the road
You should know
Time's tide will smother you
And I will too
When you laugh about people who feel so
Very lonely
Their only desire is to die
Well, I'm afraid
It doesn't make me smile
I wish I could laugh

But that joke isn't funny anymore
It's too close to home
And it's too near the bone
It's too close to home
And it's too near the bone
More than you'll ever know ...


Kick them when they fall down
Kick them when they fall down
You kick them when they fall down
Kick them when they fall down
You kick them when they fall down
Kick them when they fall down
You kick them when they fall down
Kick them when they fall down


It was dark as I drove the point home
And on cold leather seats
Well, it suddenly struck me
I just might die with a smile on my
Face after all


I've seen this happen in other people's
Lives
And now it's happening in mine


I've seen this happen in other people's
Lives
And now it's happening in mine


I've seen this happen in other people's
Lives
And now it's happening in mine


I've seen this happen in other people's
Lives
And now it's happening in mine
Oh ...


I've seen this happen in other people's
Lives
Oh ...
And now it's happening in mine
Happening in mine
Happening in mine
Happening in mine
Happening in mine







The Smiths, 1985. Vinte anos depois, Marr & Morrissey still get it all right, don't they ? Um hino de Morrissey para outros inmusicável, e para o qual Marr encontrou as melhores soluções, embora não fosse single para top of the charts...
