| [00:04.30] | Title:I WAS ONLY JOKING |
| [00:08.30] | （R. Stewart / G. Grainger） |
| [00:18.78] | Ever since I was a kid at school |
| [00:23.27] | I messed around with all the rules |
| [00:27.56] | Apologised then realised |
| [00:31.25] | I'm not different after all |
| [00:37.24] | Me and the boys thought we had it sussed |
| [00:40.93] | Valentinos all of us |
| [00:45.72] | My dad said we looked ridiculous |
| [00:49.20] | But boy we broke some hearts |
| [00:55.19] | In and out of jobs, running free |
| [00:59.29] | Waging war with society |
| [01:03.08] | Dumb blank faces stare back at me |
| [01:06.97] | But nothing ever changed |
| [01:12.76] | Promises made in the heat of the night |
| [01:16.15] | Creeping home before it got too light |
| [01:20.54] | I wasted all that precious time |
| [01:25.03] | and blamed it on the wine |
| [01:29.40] | I was only joking my dear |
| [01:34.01] | Looking for a way to hide my fear |
| [01:38.50] | What kind of fool was I |
| [01:42.68] | I could never win |
| [01:51.30] | Never found a compromise |
| [01:56.16] | Collected lovers like butterflies |
| [01:59.95] | Illusions of that grand first prize |
| [02:04.45] | are slowly wearing thin |
| [02:08.83] | Susy baby you were good to me |
| [02:12.73] | Giving love unselfishly |
| [02:17.91] | But you took it all too seriously |
| [02:22.40] | I guess it had to end |
| [02:26.10] | I was only joking my dear |
| [02:30.59] | Looking for a way to hide my fear |
| [02:35.27] | What kind of fool was I |
| [02:39.66] | I could never win |
| [02:46.63] | |
| [04:21.81] | Now you ask me if I'm sincere |
| [04:26.51] | That's the question that I always fear |
| [04:31.10] | Verse seven is never clear |
| [04:34.59] | But I'll tell you what you want to hear |
| [04:40.18] | I try to give you all you want |
| [04:43.77] | But giving love is not my strongest point |
| [04:48.87] | If that's the case it's pointless going on |
| [04:52.76] | I'd rather be alone |
| [04:58.14] | 'Cause what I'm doing must be wrong |
| [05:02.74] | Pouring my heart out in a song |
| [05:07.23] | Owning up for prosperity |
| [05:11.42] | For the whole damn world to see |
| [05:16.01] | Quietly now while I turn a page |
| [05:19.90] | Act one is over without costume change |
| [05:26.57] | The principal would like to leave the stage |
| [05:32.76] | The crowd don't understand |
