Lyrics

A you might say hey, I lost my sense of humour
Well I'm quite surprised I didn't lose it sooner
Why waste my breath on anything less
Than talk so trivial
As a man I ran out of material

Chorus
Why did the chicken go across the road
To get to the other side
I'm still waiting for the punchline
And whoever said the grass always grows
Greener on the other side
I'm still waiting for the punchline

The good ol' days I was known to wear a smile
Like all good things they've gone out of style
I will admit, usually a quick wit
I found me amusing
What used to be, no longer are amusing

Chorus

It's nothing that you said
No nothing that you did
It must have been a bad joke
That's gone over my head
What me worry, another tragedy
Ladder plus time, equals comedy

Why can't I get to the other side
I'm still waiting for the punchline
And whoever said the grass always grows
Greener on the other line
I'm still waiting for the punchline
