Laugh 'n' A 1/2

I learned politeness on my mother's knee
 I learned by uprightness my number of friends should increase
 When I think about the things I've done
 I laugh out loud to no one
 Yeah, to no one
 'Cause it's so hard to meet
 The eyes that I see
 When I try to open up my heart
 There's something inside me and I know it's good
 But understanding is misunderstood
 At the end of a smile, there's a laugh and a half
 But I became honest Mr. Mistaken
 In spite of the curves, my smile was makin'
 Bumpers and kickers in one big stream
 ♪
 I grew up in a life-size pinball machine
 Yeah, they're mean
 'Cause it's so hard to mean
 The eyes that I see
 When I try to open up my heart
 There's something inside me and I know it's good
 But understanding is misunderstood
 At the end of a smile, there's a laugh and a half (laugh out, laugh out, laugh)
 On my behalf
 There's something inside me and I know it's good
 But understanding is misunderstood
 At the end of a smile, there's a laugh and a half
 I tried to fill some silence
 'Cause the silence feels so long
 I knew the ice was gettin' thinner
 But I kept skating on
 My mother threw me into this world as a winner
 But by the light of the yellow beer
 They tell jokes I'll never get to hear
 On my behalf
 There's something inside me
 And I know it is good
 But understanding is misunderstood
 At the end of a smile, there's a laugh and a half (laugh out, laugh out, laugh)
 Yeah, maybe half
 There's something inside me
 And I know it is good
 But understanding is misunderstood
 At the end of a smile, there's a laugh and a half (laugh out, laugh out, laugh)
 At the end of a smile, there's a laugh and a half (laugh out, laugh out, laugh)
 At the end of a smile, there's a laugh and a half (laugh out, laugh out, laugh)
 At the end of a smile, there's a laugh and a half (laugh out, laugh out, laugh)
