24 Hours of Punchlines

Verse 1

Alarm clock rings like a jailhouse bell

Another day in this traveling hell

Coffee’s bitter but the truth is worse

Every man riding his own old curse

Sun comes up like it owns the town

Just another fool getting knocked around

Chorus

Life’s twenty-four hours of punchlines a day

Somebody’s winning, somebody pays

Some laugh loud, some laugh low

Some never get the joke at all

From first bad deal to last call time

Life’s just twenty-four hours of punchlines

Verse 2

Preacher talks like he’s seen the light

Bartender pours through another night

Politicians swear they know what’s right

Young men marching off to fight

Truth don’t shout, it just stands there still

Watching time collect its bill

Chorus

Life’s twenty-four hours of punchlines a day

Somebody’s winning, somebody pays

Some laugh loud, some laugh low

Some never get the joke at all

From first bad deal to last call time

Life’s just twenty-four hours of punchlines

Bridge

You learn real quick what laughter means

It ain’t always joy between the scenes

Sometimes it’s just a man surviving

While the whole damn world keeps driving

Final Chorus

Life’s twenty-four hours of punchlines a day

Somebody’s winning, somebody pays

Some laugh loud, some laugh low

Some never get the joke at all

From first bad deal to last call time

Life’s just twenty-four hours of punchlines

Tag (last line)

Turns out the joke was on me the whole time.
