The laughing crowd, they will tell you how it is If you smile you can't resist Always dying to catch you crying For they love to see you down on your knees without a single prayer Don't want to know what they're saying Don't want to see what they see The laughing crowd will never be happy The laughing crowd, they'll pay to see you sweat Bet their lives you'll blow it all and yet Never tell us, they'll only tell us
Of your shameless solitude, of your pride and of your dreams The laughing crowd, they're always in the move They go wherever the wind is scared to go Until they find it, until they're blinded The laughing crowd, they're always behind it Don't want to know what they're saying Don't want to see what they see Don't want to know what they're saying It's not for me The laughing crowd will never be happy
