Tone: [C]
Chorus:
[C]Yes, I know, I think I am a joke, I know I am a joke, I am a joke somewhere
But [G]I don't really care, well maybe I do care, but
if they know that I care they will tell more jokes about me
Verse:
[C]Yes, I know, I'm easily provoked, I try to play it placid but I just can't take a joke
I [G]guess that's the part that's funny, I guess I'm a real dummy,
as I cannot hide my upset, I run crying home to mummy
[C]"Mummy, mummy, mummy! Why are they so cruel?
Why do they all laugh at me when I go to school?
And [G]when I get a job? And when I leave home? And when I start a family? And even when I'm dead?"
Mummy [C]said "poor sweetie what do they say?
After they make a joke do they say JK?"
I said "[G]"no" she said "oh! That's really bad, I always say JK after having a laugh"?
[C]"Mummy mummy mummy! What do we do?"
She said "first thing tomorrow we take you out of school
You don't [G]have to get a job, to start a family would be cruel
It is such a pain to have to be related to [C]you"
And then I waited.... and I waited... and I waited a[G]all day
But mummy never went on to say JK
Chorus:
[C]Yes, I know, I think I am a joke, I know I am a joke, I am a joke somewhere
But [G]I don't really care, well maybe I do care, but if
they know that I care they will tell more jokes about me
