Joke's on You
Unveiling Deception: The Joke's On You
Lyrics
The Joke's On You
The situation has turned against you, and it's your turn to be laughed at or ridiculed.
You think you're smart, think you're out of sight
You believe you're intelligent or impressive.
A real cool customer again tonight
You're projecting an air of confidence or being composed.
Stepping right into the glow of your light
You're willingly placing yourself in the spotlight.
casting shadows as tall as your tales
You're creating deceptions or lies that are significant.
But don't mistake my patience for stupidity
My tolerance doesn't imply ignorance; I'm not as foolish as you'd hope.
I'm not as dumb as you want me to be
I'm not as unintelligent as you'd prefer me to be.
Oh - Looks like the Joke's on you
The situation has reversed, and now you're the subject of ridicule.
Couldn't help it if you wanted to
You couldn't prevent this even if you wanted to.
You've been tripping right over your own clown shoe
You've made a series of obvious mistakes or blunders.
Yeah! looks like the joke's on you
The mockery is directed towards you.
I'll offer a piece of advice
Here's some advice I'll give you.
Don't you try it again Coz I'll bite
If you attempt this again, I'll respond forcefully.
You can fool me the once but not twice
You might deceive me once, but not a second time.
Oh yeah - Looks like the joke's on you
Once again, the situation is turned around, and you're the one being ridiculed.
Caught red handed in the cookie jar
You've been caught in the act of doing something wrong.
Sticky fingers betraying who you are
Your actions have betrayed your true character.
With no escape in the getaway car
There's no escape from the consequences of your actions.
Coz the wheels have just come off of that bus
Your plans or schemes have failed completely.
But I won't gloat, no I won't criticise
I won't boast or criticize you; your actions speak for themselves.
You done enough yourself
You've caused enough trouble for yourself.
You're up to your eyes
You're deeply involved in your own problems or mistakes.
Oh - Looks like the Joke's on you
The situation has turned against you once more.
Couldn't help it if you wanted to
There's no way to prevent this outcome, even if you desired to.
You've been tripping right over your own clown shoe
You've repeatedly made obvious mistakes or errors.
Yeah! looks like the joke's on you
The mockery or ridicule is directed towards you again.
I'll offer a piece of advice
I'll give you advice once more.
Don't you try it again Coz I'll bite
If you try this again, I'll respond forcefully.
You can fool me the once but not twice
You might deceive me once, but not a second time.
Oh yeah - Looks like the joke's on you
Once more, the situation is turned against you, and you're being ridiculed.
Looks like the joke's on
Repeated chorus emphasizing the situation where the subject is being laughed at or ridiculed.
Looks like the joke's on
-Looks like the joke's on
-Looks like the joke's on you
-Well what can I do?
-Looks like the joke's on
-Looks like the joke's on
-Looks like the joke's on
-Looks like the joke's on you
-Well what can I do?
-Looks like the joke's on
-Looks like the joke's on
-Looks like the joke's on
-Looks like the joke's on you
-Well what can I do?
An expression of helplessness regarding the situation.
