Canned Laughter — текст песни (Graham Parker)

Intro F# B A

A D A D A
Canned laughter, rings in my ears the morning after
Canned laughter, would cans save a big disaster?
D F#m D F#m
Spreads around the room like a tumour, I`m not exactly in good humour
D A Dm E
I wish it came just one joke sooner, then I`d have to laugh

Canned laughter, I can`t crack up and I don`t have to
Canned laughter, I`m not too canned to fall in after

Can`t disguise the actual gloom but you can`t do nothing but consume
Until there isn`t any room for anything worth while

D A E D A E D A E D A
Canned laughter, ooh, Canned laughter, ooh, Canned laughter, ooh

sax break over A and D then E

Canned laughter, still echoing in the rafters
Canned laughter, I hang on the morning after
Can`t disguise the way you feel, you see the razor blade and the reel
It don`t do nothing to conceal that you`re not having fun

Canned laughter, rings in my ears the morning after
Canned laughter, don`t laugh baby you don`t have to

(note the riff from Discovering Kapan and hey)
I can do without the rumour, I`m not exactly in good humour
It feels like a malignant tumour growing in my heart
D A E D A E D A E D A
Canned laughter, ooh, Canned laughter, ooh, Canned laughter, ooh
