The Joke Explained歌词

I never held your gaze

I never know my place

Oh I stare at the eyes
Starin' at my face

It always ends in a tie

There is no knitting the divide

I cry at the joke explained

Ah but if I had known if I had known

If I had known I would have never believed

I never smoked my chain

Whoever measures the crest

Ah they can have my broken chest

It's a staring contest

In a hall of mirrors

I sweat tears but I don't ever cry

Ah but if I had known if I had known
If I had known I would have never believed

I never knelt at the news

My parrot perished in the pews
I climb back into the yolk

It always ends in a tie

There is no knitting the divide
I cry at the joke explained

Ah but if I had known if I had known

If I had known I would have never believed

I would've never believed

I would've never believed
