I Started A Joke (Live)
Bee Gees · Other Songs - Bee Gees
I started a joke
Which started the whole world crying
But I didn't see that the joke was on me, oh no
I started to cry
Which started the whole world laughing
Oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was on me
I looked at the skies running my hands over my eyes
And I fell out of bed hurting my head from things that I said
Till I finally died
Which started the whole world living
Oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was on me
I looked at the skies running my hands over my eyes
And I fell out of bed hurting my head from things that I said
Till I finally died
Which started the whole world living
Oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was on me
Oh no, that the joke was on me
Which started the whole world crying
But I didn't see that the joke was on me, oh no
I started to cry
Which started the whole world laughing
Oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was on me
I looked at the skies running my hands over my eyes
And I fell out of bed hurting my head from things that I said
Till I finally died
Which started the whole world living
Oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was on me
I looked at the skies running my hands over my eyes
And I fell out of bed hurting my head from things that I said
Till I finally died
Which started the whole world living
Oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was on me
Oh no, that the joke was on me
