The Joke Songtext / Lyric

There's) too many objections
(and) not enough corrections
(it's) too much of the old way
besetting on the new day

(There's) too many schemers
and not enough dreamers
too many bad news
and not enough of good news

that's what the joke is
that's what the joke's made of
that's what the joke is
and that's what the joke's made of
'cos that's what the joke's made of

It's too many confusions
not enough solutions
the world is disappearing
but nobody is caring

that's what the joke is
that's what the joke's made of
that's what the joke is
and that's what the joke's made of
'cos that's what the joke's made of

You say not to worry
just sit back and wait

You say: What's the hurry?
I say: It's too late
too late - it's too late

that's what the joke is
that's what the joke's made of
that's what the joke is
and that's what the joke's made of
'cos that's what the joke's made of
