Bee Gees: I Started a Joke

I Started a Joke

I started a joke, 

Which started the whole world crying. 

But I didn't see, oh no 

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'd 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'd said.   

Till I finally died, 

Which started the whole world living, 

Oh, if I'd only seen 

That the joke was one me. 

Oh no, that the joke was on me.
