Watchmen – Laugher lyrics

I'm feeling sort of playground now
My brush is cocked and colored
The sounds are running rampant
The love it can only be discovered in me

I wish they'd stop around sometime
I think the bucks are cheap enough
My mother died ahead of me
From then and ever standing up
Take it from me

I'm not falling down
And I don't know why
You'd talk me down
Cause I'm a good laugher

Good evening boy I'll be your fairy
You may even try me on again
So happy to be alive today
Tomorrow starts to ride
Take it from me

I'm not falling down
And I don't know why
You'd talk me down
Cause I really matter

Long while ago when the hell was breaking
Stood a boy and girl quiet and wise
Stood amongst the city burning
A monster city turning
As if to say you're the cause of it all

I'm not falling down
And I don't know why
You'd talk me down
Cause I really matter

A bent and ugly travelling man
Who came in right ahead of me
To walk a month's early waiting
Yeah wait 'til the summer I'm a chance for me to be

I'm not falling down
And I don't know why
You'd talk me down
But I'm really flattered
I'm a good laugher
