• Joking Apart

(Doo be do)
I like a joke as much as the next man
that's not to say the next man is a joke
and I don't like his jokes
the content is as clichйd as his delivery.
he's unpretentious, yes, but selfish
you try laughing at his expense.

I like a drink as much as the next man,
or approximately as much, I mean,
let's not get too serious about this,
there's no use in crying over wasted words.
poor thing hurting for amusement
oh, can't you take a joke?
oh, can't you see the funny side?
don't you know this is a joke?
ha ha ha
take it like a man
take it like a man, up the kilt
take it like a man, don't be filled with guilt
take it like a man, like a big tough man,
take it like a man
I go ha ha ha
