Who's Laughing Now
Durry
My mama always said I would regret it if I ever got a tattoo
She said I'd never get a job like I ever wanted one with that attitude
My dad said I had to learn to drive a stick shift
But every van I ever had was an automatic
My friends said that someday I would make it big
But I'm still living in the basement
I'm just as broke as the day I was born
But I still make it work just like everybody else does
It's all just a cruel joke and everybody knows there's no way out
Well who's laughing now?
The TV said that I would never get a girlfriend
Unless I had a six pack and smoked cigarettes
Well I've got a couple extra pounds and hottest girl in town
And she don't mind having a little more of me to go around
I'm just as broke as the day I was born
But I still make it work just like everybody else does
It's all just a cruel joke and everybody knows there's no way out
Well who's laughing now?
The preacher told me this was only just a pipe dream
And I've been burning both ends seven days a week
But baby I just paid the rent making music with my friends
It ain't much, but it could be the start of something big
I'm just as broke as the day I was born
But I still make it work just like everybody else does
It's all just a cruel joke and everybody knows there's no way out
Well who's laughing now?
My mama always said I would regret it if I ever got a tattoo
(Well who's laughing now?)
She said I'd never get a job like I ever wanted one with that attitude
(Well who's laughing now?)
My dad said I had to learn to drive a stick shift
But every van I ever had was an automatic
(Well who's laughing now?)
My friends said that someday I would make it big
But I'm still living in the basement
