Make Her Laugh

Woah oh oh oh
Up the river without a raft
You've done your worst with your better half
You better think of something fast
You better, you better make her laugh
Well it's after hours at the break of dawn
You've made your bed all day long
I must be doing something wrong
Are those tears of joy or are you just cryin'?
Just when you think you've had enough
And you're tired of tryin' to suck it up
I know you can make her laugh
Like a child on a carnival ride
Laugh that mascara right off her eyes
And she's walkin' away, just give it one more try
I know you can, you can make her laugh
Well you can leave when you want
But please leave us laughing
Leave us wondering what the fuck just happened
Your ironic cynical sarcastic sense of humor's
Got me wondering, if I ever had a chance
You know you can't make her love you
But you sure can make her cry
You can't make her make, make up her mind
Just when you think you've had enough
And you're tired of tryin' to suck it up
I know you can make her laugh
Like a child on a carnival ride
The mascara right off her eyes
And she's walkin' away, give it one more try
I know you can, you can make her laugh
And I'm bombin' tonight
Crickets fill the sky
I'm dyin' on the vine
When I see you smile again
Well I can make her laugh
Now I'm first in line for the last word now
None of the sadness or madness has yet to die down
There's nothing left to do but laugh out loud
It was all just a joke anyhow
So, make her laugh
Like a child on a carnival ride (make her laugh)
Laugh that mascara right off her eyes (make her laugh)
As she's walking away, just give it one more try
I know you can, you can make her laugh
Make her laugh
Make her laugh
Make her laugh
I know you can, you can make her laugh
