Plain Words

Wait for the joke to land

Wait for the joke to land, oh

Wait for the smile to crack

Wait for the smile to crack, oh

Nothin'

Just a weary head on the sofa

Walk hand in hand

Down Camber Sands

But why can't we

Talk late

And I wait

It was supposed to be funny

I'm sorry, wait

It was supposed to be funny

*instrumental break*

Plain words will come

But they never land on you

Just put it on the later base

Save some space for the substance chase

It's not all binary

But sometimes

I get mad

Well, you're just annoying

And I wait

It was supposed to be funny

I'm sorry, wait

It was supposed to be funny

Wеll I'll be writing in my bed

Trying to contact the dеad

You know it never works

I can show you the minutes

Just falling in routine

Never sharing always laughing

And now this joke's run it's course

Speaking as though we're divorced

(can't decipher)

(can't decipher)

Like a car crash

You can't help but look

Well I made mistakes, that's true

(can't decipher)

It was supposed to be funny

It was supposed to be funny

It was supposed to be funny

Ahhhh ah
