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.

You´ve got to laugh though it´s not funny

You´ve got to laugh, or you would surely cry

Can´t buy a chance for love or money

Can´t get arrested however hard you try

Your heart is numb, you´ve screamed and shouted

Banged on the door relentlessly

They should have come, no doubt about it

To lock you up and throw away the key

You´ve got to laugh though it´s not funny

You´ve got to laugh, or you would surely cry

Can´t buy a chance for love or money

Can´t get arrested however hard you try

It´s so unfair how unfair this is

You´ve done some things beyond the pale

You´ve broken hearts and stolen kisses

Still not enough to get you into jail

Well, it must feel like you´re invisible

Say, do they know that you´re alive

So what you gonna try now?

Hey what you gonna try?

And now it´s time to rest your poor head

You tried it all, you tried it all

You might as well have stayed in your bed

You might as well be a flower on the wall

You´ve got to laugh though it´s not funny

You´ve got to laugh, or you would surely cry

Can´t buy a chance for love or money

Can´t get arrested however hard you try
