The Joke Lyrics

There's too many objections
And not enough correction,
There's too much of the old way,
We're sitting on a new day

Na, na, na,
Na, na, na,
Na, na, na, na, na, na

There's too many schemers
And not enough dreamers,
There's too many bad blues
And not enough good news

Na, na, na,
Na, na, na,

That's what the joke is,
That's what the joke's made of,
That's what the joke is,
That's what the joke's made of,
Yes that's what the joke's made of

There's too many confusions
And not enough solutions,
The world's disappearing
But nobody's caring

Na, na, na,
Na, na, na,

That's what the joke is,
That's what the joke's made of,
That's what the joke is,
That's what the joke's made of,
Yes that's what the joke's made of

You say not to worry,
Just sit back and wait,
You say 'What's the hurry?'
I say 'It's too late.'
Too late, it's too late

That's what the joke is,
That's what the joke's made of,
That's what the joke is,
That's what the joke's made of,
Yes that's what the joke's made of

(That's what the joke is),
That's what the joke's made of,
(That's what the joke is),
That's what the joke is

(That's what the joke is),
That's what the joke's made of,
(That's what the joke is),
That's what the joke is

(That's what the joke is),
That's what the joke's made of,
(That's what the joke is),
That's what the joke is

(That's what the joke is),
That's what the joke's made of,
(That's what the joke is),
That's what the joke is
