The Cloak of Comedy Lyrics

If I change my mind
And I want to rewind
Because I took my time,
You say: "No dice."
I live alone,
I walk alone.
Everything I've known
Is stone.
Why don't we be
Like a falling leaf?
Time here is brief.
Got no time for grief.

Baby. I was only joking.
I'm ready to be your fool.
I'm always running, running out,
Just when things get good.
Now all this time
You'd been on my mind.
Was I blind and unkind?
Oh no.
I do what I can.
Ain't sorry for what I am.
I don't plan to be distant.
Got what i need.
It was only a tease
We all want to please.
Now I'm on my knees crying.
Baby. I was only joking.
I'm ready to be your fool.
I'm always running, running out,
just when things get good!

Woe, woe.
Woe, woe.
Woe woe!
