Doorways open up and close
More ways to a punchline
They're all laughing at your clothes
Standing in the lunch line
You're the talk of the town
'Cause you're up and you're down
It's a cycle, I've found
It always comes around
But I will still be laughing
Yes, I will still be laughing
Air raids in the afternoon
The children are playing
Switchblades, colored red balloons
No one hears your praying
And it comes back to you
All the things that you do
Will come looking for you
Will come looking for you
But I will still be laughing
Yes, I will still be laughing
Doorways lead to other rooms
Always leave you lying
Face down in a stranger's tomb
Didn't know you were dying
And you rise and you fall
And you wait for the call
You're watching the walls
You're watching the walls
But I will still be laughing
I will still be laughing
Yes, I will still be laughing
I will still be laughing
Laughing, laughing, laughing
I will still be laughing
Yes, I will still be laughing
Laughing, laughing, laughing
