Jokester
Leftover Salmon · Other Songs - Leftover Salmon
Always party from mornin' 'till night
No time for sleepin' when you are feelin' fine
Flat out wailin' with all of your might
Well, your problem will they pack the bags?
You send them on, they run
No time to let them bother you
When you are havin' fun
You're a jokester, you've got energy to burn
Runnin' wild, you goin' all the time
Always laughin' and actin' in mime
No time for whinin' when you are feelin' fine
Always dancin' and talkin' in rhymes
Burn one
Goin' wild, you runnin' all the time
Always party from mornin' till night
No time for sleepin' when you are feelin' fine
Flat out wailin' with all of your might
Burn one
You're a jokester, you got energy to burn
