Laughter

Lyrics

A laugh for the way my life has gone
 A laugh for the love of a friend
 A laugh for the fools in the eyes of the world
 The love that will never end
 Ha Ha Ha...
 Let's hear a laugh for the man of the world
 Who thinks he can make things work
 Tried to build the New Jerusalem
 And ended up with New York
 Ha Ha Ha...
 A laugh for the sun redballing
 Through the thermal inversion haze
 A laugh for the nuclear good-time boys
 Numbering all our days
 Ha Ha Ha...
 ♪
 A laugh for the newsprint nightmare
 A world that never was
 Where the questions are all "why?"
 And the answers are all "because."
 Ha Ha Ha...
 ♪
 A laugh for the dogs barking at our heels
 They don't know where we've been
 A laugh for the dirty window pane
 Hiding the love within
 Ha Ha Ha...
 Tapping our feet to an ancient tune
 A laugh for the time gone by
 A laugh for me and Kitty in the delivery room
 Waiting for the child's first cry
 ♪
 Ha Ha Ha...
