Bob Geldof

One for Me

You`re a lotta laughs ain`t you babe

You cracked me up, I laughed so much I nearly died

It`s so funny I was weeping

Cried so hard, I nearly split my side

I watched you laughing on the TV

I don`t get it said the kindly host

But there are many here among us

Who feel the sight is but a joke

Your imagination`s running riot

Sometimes I swear you believe what you say

No-one seems to notice it`s the same joke

It`s just told in a thousand different ways

And I can`t wait to read the new ones

Yeah the comedy just gets better every day

You`re a lotta laughs ain`t you babe

It`s funny how it all turned out that way

Ooh, you should have known better

You should have known better, a-ha-ha

It`s not for you, this one`s for me

I saw a picture of you grinning

Yeah that smirk covered your entire face

It almost split your head in two

I hear you sold it to OK

Sell a photo of you laughing

The more you hoot the more they pay

You don`t even need to get your clothes off anymore

You`re a bit too old for that stuff anyway

Somebody saw you at the party

You did the one where you`re falling flat on your face

You had the whole place cracking up in stitches

Apparently you fall with such good grace

And the teenage clothes and see-through sizes

The mutton dishes up on the Sunday plate

Is now the lamb in ghostly guises

It`s all done in the best of taste

Ooh, you should have known better

You should have known better, a-ha-ha

It`s not for you, this one`s for me
