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
