Lyrics
I learned politeness on my mother's knee
I learned by uprightness my number of friends should increase
When I think about the things I've done
I laugh out loud to no one
Yeah, to no one
'Cause it's so hard to meet
The eyes that I see
When I try to open up my heart
There's something inside me and I know it's good
But understanding is misunderstood
At the end of a smile, there's a laugh and a half
But I became honest Mr. Mistaken
In spite of the curves, my smile was makin'
Bumpers and kickers in one big stream
I grew up in a life-size pinball machine
Yeah, they're mean
'Cause it's so hard to mean
The eyes that I see
When I try to open up my heart
There's something inside me and I know it's good
But understanding is misunderstood
At the end of a smile, there's a laugh and a half (laugh out, laugh out, laugh)
On my behalf
There's something inside me and I know it's good
But understanding is misunderstood
At the end of a smile, there's a laugh and a half
I tried to fill some silence
'Cause the silence feels so long
I knew the ice was gettin' thinner
But I kept skating on
My mother threw me into this world as a winner
But by the light of the yellow beer
They tell jokes I'll never get to hear
On my behalf
There's something inside me
And I know it is good
But understanding is misunderstood
At the end of a smile, there's a laugh and a half (laugh out, laugh out, laugh)
Yeah, maybe half
There's something inside me
And I know it is good
But understanding is misunderstood
At the end of a smile, there's a laugh and a half (laugh out, laugh out, laugh)
At the end of a smile, there's a laugh and a half (laugh out, laugh out, laugh)
At the end of a smile, there's a laugh and a half (laugh out, laugh out, laugh)
At the end of a smile, there's a laugh and a half (laugh out, laugh out, laugh)
