[Verse 1] The joke got told, and all it wanted to do Was get told so much that it became true Sat down on any tongues tip Hoping to get taken serious When he talked it was to place a blame Then hed talk more to hear his own name And I was just laughing at the things being said Cause every time he spoke I thought the joke would end [Chorus] One night it seemed, the joke went on too long Everybody was laughing till the punchline got told wrong The room got quiet, its not funny cause its true Half the joke you told gettin told on you [Verse 2] The prided man can make proud The fear in minds that make the crowd Spoken like a tabloid and just as cheap Promises that just wont keep Real estate agent on his daddys lawn Telling people its not their home When he gets asked what he does that for He just thanks them for the taco bowl [Chorus] One night it seemed, the joke went on too long Everybody was laughing till the punchline got told wrong The room got quiet, its not funny cause its true Half the joke you told gettin told on you [Verse 3] Some tea got spilled and the king went mad And oh what a maddening fight was had And if there ever was a more perfect dream Its as lost as a smile on a pageant queen The joke got told and like it wanted to do It got told so much that it became true Wasnt in the blast and werent we impressed When the prided one man amused us to death [Chorus] One night it seemed, the joke went on too long Everybody was laughing till the punchline got told wrong The room got quiet, its not funny cause its true Half the joke you told gettin told on you [Outro] Half the joke you told get told on you Half the joke you told get told on you
