Last Laugh - Blue Rodeo

I should have seen through it but you were so intent

A nervous breakdown on an overworked bed

You couldn’t wait to get over the edge

You were drunk on the silver when he took your crown

He took from you everything that wasn’t tied down

Well, you said he was an angel with the chains of gold

Too bad they weren’t strong enough to hold

The clock of the world is just a dream

Still I shouldn’t be jealous of the ones who lay flowers at your feet

Yeah, my desire has finally put you out of reach

You were drunk on the silver when he took your crown

He took from you everything that wasn’t tied down

Well, you said he was an angel with the chains of gold

Too bad they weren’t strong enough to hold

Now all your saviors wait their turn in line

While you sit in the corner and drink yourself blind

The last laugh has finally been had but it’s not what you think

The last laugh has finally been had and it don’t taste so sweet

Now you’re finally on your own

Last thing he said to you was see you around

You were drunk on the silver, you were drunk on the silver

You were drunk on the silver, you were drunk on the silver

You were drunk on the silver

Now you’re going to leave me with the last laugh
