I started a joke, which started the whole world crying
Oh, but they didn't see that the joke was on me, oh no, no.
I told a few lies in a film about global warming
Oh, but I never dreamed that they'd all believe me.
I showed them my sights, told them that we'll be dropping like flies
Then I got an academy award for showing the world what they (...)?
Then I got a peace prize, and now the whole world's clapping
Oh, but they didn't see that |: the joke was on me, oh no :|
The joke was on me!
