The Joke's On Me
Jordan Zevon

Did you ever take a moment just to stop and look around and found nYou might have missed a meeting or two?nAll the smiling faces of the strangers that surround menAnd I start to think I don’t have a cluenIs it ignorance or bliss that fuels the never-ending happinessnThat I’ve always seemed to elude?nIs it them? Is it me? Yank the starter on the litanynAnd try to keep from coming ungluednnIt looks like the joke’s on menCause I’m the only one that isn’t really having funnIt looks like the joke’s on menIt’s only just begunnFade in, waiting on…nnA massive mug of coffeenThat I’m hoping will arouse menFrom a zombie like state I’ve accruednIt’s another somber morningnMasturbate and greet the dawn innAs I’m yawning through the self abusenPick a suit that isn’t stained andnFloor it down the freewaynI MUST NOT BE LATEnCause the boss is out of VicodinnAnd now the real pain beginsnSo why’s he laughing?nnCause it looks like the joke’s on menSince I’m the only one that isn’t really having funnIt looks like the joke’s on menI signed the dotted linenTo be the perfect punch linenAnd nobody told menThat I be the follynCause it looks like the jokes on mennThe agony of defeatnWith a catchy melodynStanding dead on my feetnMaybe someone should bury menA natural born losernSmothered in humornIt looks like the joke’s on men nStumbling down the road of lifenIgnoring all the good advicenI never had the sense to usenBut we’ve all got a path to choosenAnd stupid is as stupid do’snMaybe I was born to amusennIt looks like the joke’s on menCause I’m the only one that isn’t really having funnIt looks like the joke’s on menForget humility and I’ll provide the comedynIt looks like the joke’s on menYou check my spine you’ll find a burden and a kick me signnIt looks like the joke’s on menI’m just a bland mime yanking on a fake linenI’ll keep on pullingnBut who am I fooling?nCause it looks like the joke’s on me
