[Verse 1] Woke up this mornin’, coffee in my hand Feelin’ real good, had a rockin’ plan But here come the clowns with their worn-out gags Tryna trip me up with their plastic flags [Cue: bounce like “Stuck in the Middle”] They dance, they shout, they wave their hands Tryna get me caught in their nonsense jam But I see through the show, it’s a one-star act And I’m sittin’ back just laughin’ at that [Chorus] Jokers got me laughin’ — I ain't even mad Tryna wreck my rhythm, but I’m feelin’ rad Jokers got me laughin’, can’t bring me down I’m two steps up when they’re foolin’ around [Verse 2 – easy strum, cheeky grin tone] One says I’m lost, the other says “change” But they’re wearin’ shoes in a funhouse maze Spinnin’ like tops, crashin’ their schemes While I’m moonwalkin’ through my dreams [Bridge – slow it down, bluesy flair] Oh they talk, oh they plot, But they never hit the spot I’m a freight train of cool And they just forgot [Back to Chorus – pick it up] Jokers got me laughin’, I’m cruisin’ by Turn their drama into apple pie Jokers got me laughin’, not feelin’ blue I might just teach a fool a move or two [Outro – mellow, harmonica optional] So bring on the noise, bring on the spin I got my groove, and I’m locked in They can try all day, but here’s the thing: Jokers keep jokin’... And I still sing. [Harmonica solo] [Outro – mellow, harmonica] So bring on the noise, bring on the spin I got my groove, and I’m locked in They can try all day, but here’s the thing: Jokers keep jokin’... And I still sing.
