Laughing Lyrics
I should laugh, but I cry,
Because your love has passed me by.
You took me by surprise;
You didn’t realize
That I was waiting.
Time goes slowly, but carries on.
And now the best years have come and gone.
You took me by surprise,
I didn’t realize
That you were laughing.
(Laughing)
‘Cause you’re doin’ it to me.
(Laughing)
It ain’t the way it should be.
You took away ev’rything I had.
You put the hurt on me.
I go alone now, calling your name.
After losing at the game.
You took me by surprise;
I didn’t realize
That you were laughing.
(Laughing)
‘Cause you’re doin’ it to me.
(Laughing)
It ain’t the way it should be.
You took away ev’rything I had.
You put the hurt on me.
(Laughing)
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
(Laughing)
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha…
Because your love has passed me by.
You took me by surprise;
You didn’t realize
That I was waiting.
And now the best years have come and gone.
You took me by surprise,
I didn’t realize
That you were laughing.
‘Cause you’re doin’ it to me.
(Laughing)
It ain’t the way it should be.
You took away ev’rything I had.
You put the hurt on me.
After losing at the game.
You took me by surprise;
I didn’t realize
That you were laughing.
‘Cause you’re doin’ it to me.
(Laughing)
It ain’t the way it should be.
You took away ev’rything I had.
You put the hurt on me.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
(Laughing)
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha…

someone got their heart played in this song... the love game is hard on all of us! and for some even more so!
I'm in my 60's - my ex left me and turned our child against me - so basically, it's about my life.
one of my all time favorite guess who songs....i love this song. :D
All I ever listen to is Classic Rock, and so I have millions of classic rock albums and my girlfriend listened to this song in the car and she actually liked it, and she dislikes most of the classic rock songs! She said this was an awesome song, thats mostly why I love this song so much.
its obviously about a cruel ex
One of my favourite songs. To me, it represents a hard time in my life when my girlfriend broke up with me, and she just didn't give a shit how I felt. this song is about just that.
Just an observation: The song is not about an "ex-", it's about a "never was, but..."
The subject hung around and pursued a relationship with the object of his affection, never realizing that that person was toying with his desires to stroke their own ego until the "cat" grew tired of playing and let the "mouse" go, laughing all the way. (Yeah- Cats do SO laugh!)
"The Heartless Ex" angle is still valid, tho, because the personality type of the "cat" is the most relevant aspect of the song's emotional impact.
Wow what a great song
Yeah, a great song sounds sad but its about being happy
@A_Mick Yeah- If you're a Psycho B****. >:D
