I Was Only Joking


Ever since i was a kid at school
i messed around with all the rules
apologised then realised
i'm not different after all
Me and the boys thought we had it sussed
valentinos all of us
my dad said we looked ridiculous
but boy we broke some hearts
in and out of jobs, running free
waging war with society
dumb blank faces stare back at me
but nothing ever changed
Promises made in the heat of the night
creeping home before it got too light
i wasted all that precious time
and blamed it on the wine
Chorus:
I was only joking my dear
looking for a way to hide my fear
what kind of fool was i
i could never win
Never found a compromise
collected lovers like butterflies
illusions of that grand first prize
are slowly wearing thin
susy baby you were good to me
giving love unselfishly
but you took it all too seriously
i guess it had to end
(chorus)
Now you ask me if i'm sincere
that's the question that i always fear
verse seven is never clear
but i'll tell you what you want to hear
i try to give you all you want
but giving love is not my strongest point
if that's the case it's pointless going on
i'd rather be alone
'cause what i'm doing must be wrong
pouring my heart out in a song
owning up for prosperity
for the whole damn world to see
Quietly now while i turn a page
act one is over without costume change
the principal would like to leave the stage
the crowd don't understand
