The Smiths Lyrics for Song: That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore
 Lyrics for Album: The Smiths Complete [2011]
 
 
 
 8347>Park the car at the side of the road
 
 You should know
 
 Time's tide will smother you
 
 And I will too
 
 
 
 When you laugh about people
 
 Who feel so very lonely
 
 Their only desire is to die
 
 Well, I'm afraid
 
 It doesn't make me smile
 
 
 
 I wish I could laugh
 
 But that joke isn't funny anymore
 
 It's too close to home
 
 And it's too near the bone
 
 It's too close to home
 
 And it's too near the bone
 
 More than you'll ever know
 
 
 
 Kick them when they fall down
 
 Kick them when they fall down
 
 You kick them when they fall down
 
 Kick them when they fall down
 
 You kick them when they fall down
 
 Kick them when they fall down
 
 You kick them when they fall down
 
 Kick them when they fall down
 
 
 
 It was dark as I drove the point home
 
 And on cold leather seats
 
 Well, it suddenly struck me
 
 I just might die with a smile on my face, after all
 
 
 
 I've seen this happen in other people's lives
 
 And now it's happening in mine
 
 I've seen this happen in other people's lives
 
 And now it's happening in mine
 
 I've seen this happen in other people's lives
 
 And now it's happening in mine
 
 I've seen this happen in other people's lives
 
 And now it's happening in mine
 
 8347>
