Intro F# B A

A D A D A
|
Canned laughter, rings in my ears the morning after
|
Canned laughter, would cans save a big disaster?
|
D F#m D F#m
|
Spreads around the room like a tumour, I'm not exactly in good humour
|
D A Dm E
|
I wish it came just one joke sooner, then I'd have to laugh
|
|
Canned laughter, I can't crack up and I don't have to
|
Canned laughter, I'm not too canned to fall in after
|
|
Can't disguise the actual gloom but you can't do nothing but consume
|
Until there isn't any room for anything worth while
|
|
D A E D A E D A E D A
|
Canned laughter, ooh, Canned laughter, ooh, Canned laughter, ooh
|
|
sax break over A and D then E
|
|
Canned laughter, still echoing in the rafters
|
Canned laughter, I hang on the morning after
|
Can't disguise the way you feel, you see the razor blade and the reel
|
It don't do nothing to conceal that you're not having fun
|
|
Canned laughter, rings in my ears the morning after
|
Canned laughter, don't laugh baby you don't have to
|
|
(note the riff from Discovering Kapan and "hey")
|
I can do without the rumour, I'm not exactly in good humour
|
It feels like a malignant tumour growing in my heart
|
D A E D A E D A E D A
|
Canned laughter, ooh, Canned laughter, ooh, Canned laughter, ooh
