| Artist | Shoes |
| Album | Ignition |
| You might find another noble cause | |
| To hang upon your wall | |
| And fill your hallowed halls | |
| But in time your words will seal your fate | |
| So I’m picking up the pace | |
| And laughing in your face ‘ | |
| Cause the joke’s on you | |
| That’s the way it goes | |
| When everybody knows | |
| That the joke’s on you | |
| I don’t need to say | |
| That it’s funny how things change | |
| Your point of view | |
| When the joke’s on you | |
| Now the joke’s on you | |
| Strange to think that how | |
| It’s not so funny now | |
| That the joke’s on you | |
| I was your amusement for a while | |
| Now you can’t crack a smile | |
| I’m laughing all the while | |
| You can’t see the forest for your needs | |
| Despite your desperate pleas | |
| It just occurred to me | |
| Now the joke’s on you | |
| It’s right before your eyes | |
| It comes as no surprise | |
| That the joke’s on you | |
| Now you know | |
| That it’s funny how love goes | |
| From hot to cold | |
| When the joke’s on you | |
| That’s the way it goes | |
| When everybody knows | |
| That the joke’s on you | |
| Now the joke’s on you | |
| The joke’s on you |
| You might find another noble cause | |
| To hang upon your wall | |
| And fill your hallowed halls | |
