Lyrics
YOU AND ME WE'RE IN A GARDEN
GROWING DAISIES ON A LAWN
SUDDENLY THE PATHWAYS HARDEN
THEN THEY'RE GONE
IT'S KILLING WEEDS ON MONDAY
TUESDAY CUTTING SOMETHING DOWN
WHERE'S THE NEED FOR THIS DESTRUCTION
HEY DARLIN, WHAT'S GOING ON
YOU GOTTA LAUGH SOMETIMES
ELSE YOU GONNA CRY
YOU GOTTA LAUGH SOMETIMES
OR YOU'LL BE FALLING FOR THEIR LIES
THEY'RE THE ONES WHO SAY I LOVE YOU
WITH NOTHING IN THEIR EYES
YOU GOTTA LAUGH SOMETIMES
ELSE YOU GONNA CRY
WE'RE BEING POISONED BY THE BERRIES
GETTING TANGLED UP IN THORNS
WE BEEN CRYING ROUND THE GARDEN
WAY TOO LONG
YOU GOTTA LAUGH SOMETIMES
ELSE YOU GONNA CRY
YOU GOTTA LAUGH SOMETIMES
OR YOU'LL BE FALLING FOR THEIR LIES
THEY'RE THE ONES WHO SAY I LOVE YOU
WITH NOTHING IN THEIR EYES
YOU GOTTA LAUGH SOMETIMES
ELSE YOU GONNA CRY
HEY YOU PEOPLE OF AUSTRALIA
GATHER ROUND THE BARBECUE
TELL THOSE PEOPLE IN AMERICA
ROUND THE TV NEWS
YOU GOTTA LAUGH SOMETIMES
OR YOU'LL BE CRYING TOO
YOU GOTTA LAUGH SOMETIMES
ELSE YOU GONNA CRY
YOU GOTTA LAUGH SOMETIMES
OR YOU'LL BE FALLING FOR THEIR LIES
THEY'RE THE ONES WHO SAY I LOVE YOU
WITH NOTHING IN THEIR EYES
YOU GOTTA LAUGH SOMETIMES
ELSE YOU GONNA CRY
