The Jokes On You

The jokes on you Flit As we walk home from the party The atmosphere declines Just you and i alone again There’s nowhere left to hide In and out of consciousness We always wear a different face Whatever we decide to show it’s never out of place A game for two that one can play I know you’ll never stay away A never ending episode Of day and night –night and day Of day and night –night and day Hello Jekyll goodbye Mr. Hyde To me you are the joker The jester deep inside You are the joker- --- But the jokes on you A switchback roller coaster Always coming of the tracks Its double vision eye to eye, It’s time we faced the fact I know you’ll never catch me, I’m gonna slip right through Your altered twisted attitude will be the end of you I see you in the mirror There’s no freedom there for me Cause this schizophrenic multitude Is deep inside of me? Is hiding deep inside of me? Hello Mr. Jekyll Goodbye Mr. Hyde To me you are the joker The jester deep inside You are the joker---- But the jokes on you The jesters deep inside
