LAUGHING BOY
Time ain't gonna wait
For even you my friend
I can't stay late
I'm looking at the end
Ace high, hypnotised
And sucked into that scene
Taking home a guise
It wasn't really me
Hard years later
And we're still hanging on
For the St. Jackbox score
That's never gonna come
Not running away now
Been running all day
But it's falling apart now
It's been coming all day
Oh I have been your laughing boy
I took it on the chin
Accepted gracefully
And all the heat that you deploy (your laughing boy)
The more I take (your laughing boy)
The more I break
Cooking fires on the beach
Smoke finger in the sky
You know that's where I should be
My baby by my side
Good times from the start
Remember that now
The palace gang's back to old things
And that's my cue, I'm getting out in style
For I have been your laughing boy (your laughing boy)
I took it on the chin (your laughing boy)
Accepted gracefully
And all the heat that you deploy (your laughing boy)
The more I take (your laughing boy)
The more I break
Not running away now
Been running all day
But it's falling apart now
It's been coming all day
Oh I have been your laughing boy (your laughing boy)
I took it on the chin (your laughing boy)
Accepted gracefully
And all the heat that you deploy (your laughing boy)
The more I take (your laughing boy)
The more I break
For I have been your loving boy (your laughing boy)
I took it on the chin (your laughing boy)
Accepted gracefully
Take all the heat you can deploy (your laughing boy)
The more I take (your laughing boy)
The more I break
For even you my friend
I can't stay late
I'm looking at the end
Ace high, hypnotised
And sucked into that scene
Taking home a guise
It wasn't really me
Hard years later
And we're still hanging on
For the St. Jackbox score
That's never gonna come
Not running away now
Been running all day
But it's falling apart now
It's been coming all day
Oh I have been your laughing boy
I took it on the chin
Accepted gracefully
And all the heat that you deploy (your laughing boy)
The more I take (your laughing boy)
The more I break
Cooking fires on the beach
Smoke finger in the sky
You know that's where I should be
My baby by my side
Good times from the start
Remember that now
The palace gang's back to old things
And that's my cue, I'm getting out in style
For I have been your laughing boy (your laughing boy)
I took it on the chin (your laughing boy)
Accepted gracefully
And all the heat that you deploy (your laughing boy)
The more I take (your laughing boy)
The more I break
Not running away now
Been running all day
But it's falling apart now
It's been coming all day
Oh I have been your laughing boy (your laughing boy)
I took it on the chin (your laughing boy)
Accepted gracefully
And all the heat that you deploy (your laughing boy)
The more I take (your laughing boy)
The more I break
For I have been your loving boy (your laughing boy)
I took it on the chin (your laughing boy)
Accepted gracefully
Take all the heat you can deploy (your laughing boy)
The more I take (your laughing boy)
The more I break
