Lyrics:
“They All Laughed”
When he said the world was round
They all laughed when Edison recorded sound
They all laughed at Wilbur and his brother
When they said that man could fly
They told Macron, wireless was a phony
It’s the same old cry
They laughed at me wanting you
Said I was reaching for the moon
But oh, you came through
Now they’ll have to change their tune
They all said we never could be happy
They laughed at us and how
Oh! Who’s got the last laugh now?
They laughed at me wanting you
Said it would be, “Hello, goodbye”
But oh, you came through
Now they’re eating humble pie
They all said we’d never get together
Darling, let’s take a bow
Oh! Who’s got the last laugh now?
Oh! Who’s got the last laugh?
Oh! Who’s got the last laugh now?
