Killing The Joke
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Inhibitions
Televisions
Clicking through whatever
Weather you know
That your mind let's you know
I know better
But I, I want to see you tonight
'Cause the clocks count down
And we're in for bad weather
It'd be nice to see you
To see you nice
But I want to see you tonight
'Cause you're my top
You're my top
You're my top one-hundred shows
Why do I always have to go
Killing the joke?
Interstellar, dressed in leather
Drinking bitter boy
You know the plan
But you never knew the ploy
But I, I live a lonely life
Since you been gone I left the TV on
Let the milk go sour, let the bills pile up
But I, I know I'm a funny guy
'Cause you're my top
You're my top
You're my top one-hundred shows
Why do I always have to go
Killing the joke?
Swear I saw you smile
You try to hide it with
Three fifteen on the wrong side
'Cause you're my top
You're my top
You're my top one-hundred shows
Why do I always have to go
Killing the joke?
Kill the joke
Kill the joke
Kill the joke
Kill the joke
