D-A-D Laugh 'n' a ½

I learned politeness on my mammas knee
I learned by uprightness my number of friends should increase
When I think about the things I've done
I laugh out loud to no one, yeah to no one

Cause it's so hard to meet the eyes that I see
when I try to open up my heart
There is something inside me and I know it's good
but understanding is misunderstood
At the end of a smile there's a laugh 'n' a ½.

But I became honest Mr. Mistaken
In spite of the curves my smile was making
Bombers and kickers in one big stream
I grew up in a life size pinball machine
Yeah they're mean

Cause it's so hard to meet the eyes that I see
when I try to open up my heart
There is something inside me and I know it's good
but understanding is misunderstood
At the end of a smile there's a laugh 'n' a ½ (there is a laugh'n'a ½)
on my behalf
There is something inside me and I know it's good
but understanding is misunderstood
At the end of a smile there is a laugh 'N' a ½

I tried to fill some silence 'cause the silence feels so long
I knew the ice was getting thinner, but I kept skating on
My mother threw me into this world as a winner
But by the light of the yellow beer
They tell the jokes I'll never getta hear

On my behalf
There is something inside me and I know it's good
but understanding is misunderstood
At the end of a smile there is a laugh 'n' a ½ (there is a laugh 'n' a ½)
On my behalf
There is something inside me and I know its good
but understanding is misunderstood
At the end of a smile there is a laugh 'n' a ½ (there is a laugh 'n' a ½) x 4
