Here's a man who can't take a joke.
He wails and battles and bawls.
Here's a man who lost his control.
And I can see, we all can see, that he'll never get that joke.

Crowds of many makes a man of steel,
But alone he battles his rust.
I can't tell if he's the only one.
And I can see, we all can see, how he'll never get that joke.

Why don't you buy time, toss-around time
You want to get that joke.
Why don't you find time, and realize
The walls won't fall on you.

The critics came and changed the earth.
Sticks and stones are all dust.
Oh, ? just fade away.
Words are cheap, all really deep, now we want to get that joke.

Why don't you buy time, dance-around time
You're really not that joke.
Why don't you find time, and realize
The walls won't fall on you.

Empathize and hide your eyes,
Let's just talk about us.
Two friends walk into the dark.
Got to be, when he can sleep, and we never get that joke.

Why don't you but time, toss-around time
We're really not that joke.
Why don't you find time, and realize
The walls won't fall on you.

Why don't you find time, kick-around time
You're really not that joke.
Why don't you find time, and realize
The walls won't fall on you.
