OCTOTHORPE
Funny Enough For You
----------------------
Eating out - Irish twister,
Saying "Hi" to the strange Mister.
Dogs are barking,
I can't find parking.
I laugh at what they say,
And it lasts all day.
Stomach pain goes on,
Like Ban Roll-on.
[chorus]
Who laughs?
You laugh.
I laugh at jokes-ah,
Short Swiss Mocha.
Now that's funny,
Funny enough for me.
Funny enough for who?
Funny enough for you!
[end chorus]
The alligator walks,
Tied around some socks.
He tries.
He fails.
Face goes down,
Much like a clown.
He comes up covered in pie,
I laugh so hard I cry.
[chorus]
Octothorpe walks into a bar,
Musical ability carries them far.
We hear them say "Ouch",
and collapse on the couch.
Almost as if we sang,
They ask about the bang.
They listen, our noses broken,
We tell the story about Hoboken.

Re: Funny Enough for You
Doctor Worm - Funny Enough for You
----------------------------------
I can't recall the last time I made you smile
You don't notice at all, but I can tell it's been awhile
And I have no way of knowing if you've heard me
No reason to believe you give a damn at all
What are you thinking, Miss I'm-Too-Good-For-You?
What is your problem, Miss Know-It-All?
Could you spare a little sympathy, darling?
I find I'm running low today
How about a little care and compassion?
In the state I'm in
A little bit goes a long way
It doesn't matter how hard I try
Doesn't matter how well I think things through
I could be wry or slapstick
Or subtly sarcastic
But I still wouldn't be funny enough for you
Can't you do your part?
Would you think with your heart
Every once in a while?
I could have sworn you cared
The signs are all there
But you're just in denial
It's getting harder every day
To tolerate and turn away
I'm not asking for obsession
Just a little bit more attention
Couldn't you make some kind of effort
To make me feel worthwhile?
I could deal without this pressure
From when you give me your
Deadpan stares and your icy glares, but...
It doesn't matter how hard I try
Doesn't matter how well I think things through
I could be wry or slapstick
Or subtly sarcastic
But I still wouldn't be funny enough for you
No, I still wouldn't be funny enough for you
I'll never quite be funny enough for you

Re: Funny Enough for You
Hmmmm... here are some more lyrics, for people who like to read.
"Funny Enough for You" by 15-16 puzzle
Hey...
You shouldn't sit so far away
I'm gonna need some friendly faces here to pull me through
It's hard to not be worried
When all you have are hurried jokes
So have a few more rum and cokes
The more you drink, the less I think
About how bad I'll do
If I'm not funny enough for you
Why did you come here just to sit and sulk?
It's really getting kind of old
The only laughter that I heard from you
Was before my jokes were told
And that
Is why my whole routine fell flat
It didn't help that you were heckling the whole way through
Guess I'm not funny enough for you
An observation in the proper light
Is funny ,yeah, because it's true:
How am I supposed to win the crowd over
If I can't win over you?
I think
That you've had quite enough to drink
My time is up, our time together here is almost through
I'm just not funny enough for you
I'm just not funny enough for you.

Re: Funny Enough for You
funny enough for you - frankie big face
wake up and make up every day
feels like there's nothing left to say
you made up your mind that you're going to steal away
it won't be long 'til you're turning your key to get in
with that same old grin
is it funny? is it funny?
who's laughing now?
who's laughing now?
who's laughing now?
bed up fed up every night
knowing that things will never be right
you suddenly find that you're planning a midnight flight
it won't be long 'til you're back on my doorstep and saying
that you were only playing
is it funny? do you think it's funny?
who's laughing now?
who's laughing now?
who's laughing now?
you wanted some time alone
well now you have time alone
you wanted to be by yourself
with nobody else
so what are you crying about?
who's laughing now?
who's laughing now?
who's laughing now?
is this funny enough for you?
