The Joker Songtext
von Sérgio Mendes & Brasil ’66

The joker
The joker


There's always a joker in the pack
There's always a lonely clown
The poor laughing fool falls on his back
And everyone laughs when he's down
There's always a funny man in the game
But he's only funny by mistake
Everyone laughs at him, just the same
They don't see his lonely heart break
They don't care as long as there is a jester, just a fool
As foolish as he can be
There's always a joker, that's a rule
But fate deals a hand and I see
The joker is me
Always a funny man in the game
But he's only funny by mistake
Oh, everyone laughs at him, just the same
They don't see his lonely heart break
They don't care as long as there is a jester, just a fool
As foolish as he can be
There's always a joker, that's a rule
But fate deals a hand and I see
The joker is me

Oh, there's always funny man in the game
But he's only funny by mistake
Everyone laughs at him just the same
They don't see his lonely heart break
They don't care as long as there jester, just a fool
As foolish as he can be
There's always a joker, that's a rule
But fate deals a hand and I see
The joker is me
The joker is me
(the joker)
The joker is me
(the joker)
The joker is me
