a laugh for the love of a friend
a laugh for the fools in the eyes of the world
the love that will never end
Ha Ha Ha...

Let's hear a laugh for the man of the world
who thinks he can make things work
tried to build the New Jerusalem
and ended up with New York
Ha Ha Ha...

A laugh for the sun redballing
through the thermal inversion haze
a laugh for the nuclear good-time boys
numbering all our days
Ha Ha Ha...

A laugh for the newsprint nightmare
a world that never was
where the questions are all "why"
and the answers are all "because"
Ha Ha Ha...

A laugh for the dogs barking at our heels
they don't know where we've been
a laugh for the dirty window pane
hiding the love within
Ha Ha Ha...

Tapping our feet to an ancient tune
a laugh for the time gone by
a laugh for me and Kitty in the delivery room
waiting for the child's first cry
Ha Ha Ha...
