Long Running Joke

Nataly Dawn

It's a long running joke
And I'm sorry I'd croaked if I lied, if I lied.
We'd all just keep smiling the same
So you put on your suits
And you're all in cahoots but who cares?
Silent prayers won't keep you from going insane

Or maybe they will, if just for a time
They could say it was God, or something divine
You could blame it on flesh-eating monsters
Or even yourself, even yourself
La di da

Well, it's a long running joke
And I'll run 'til I croak, God know why
God knows why, we all keep on feeding the shame
So you put on your suits
And you're all in cahoots but who cares?
Silent prayers won't keep you from feeling the pain

Or maybe they will, 'cos you know what they say
When there's a gun to your head
You should know how to pray
And when Death comes a' knockin'
He says that we're all just the same
We're all just the same
La di da

So I'll put on the suit,
If you promise to shoot when I'm chased
Sins erased, and bound for those big pearly gates

Or maybe they will, 'cos you know what they say
When there's a gun to your head
You should know how to pray
And when Death comes a' knockin'
He says that we're all just the same
We're all just the same.
La di da.
We're all just the same
