Lyrics:
“You Don’t Think I’m Funny Anymore”
You don’t think I’m funny anymore
You used to laugh at all my jokes
Even though you’d heard them all before
But yoy think I’m funny anymoreI used to fake a heart attack
And fall down on the floor
But even I don’t think that’s funny anymoreI guess things change
And the more they change the more they stay the same
And there ain’t no blame
Sometimes the picture just don’t fit the frameAnd this is where the cowboy yields the floor
Cause you don’t think I’m funny anymoreI guess things change
And the more they change the more they stay the same
And there ain’t no blame
Sometimes the picture just fit the frame
And this is where the cowboy yields the floor
Cause you don’t think I’m funny anymoreDid you hear the one about the dirty whore
Oh I forgot… you don’t think I’m funny anymore
