Lyrics Comedy

The world is changing
The planet's heating up
What the fuck is going on
Rearranging
It's like everything happened all at once
Um, what the fuck is going on
The people rising in the streets
The war, the drought
The more I look the more I see nothing to joke about
Is comedy over
Should I leave you alone 'cos really who's gonna go for joking at a time like this
Should I be joking at a time like this
I wanna help to leave this world better than I found it
And I fear that comedy won't help and the fear is not unfounded
Should I stop trying to be funny
Should I give away my money
No
What do I do
Hhh hhh hhh huh hhh hhh hhh
Healing the world with comedy
The indescribable power of your comedy
The world needs direction from a white guy like me who is healing the world with comedy
That's it
The world is so fucked up
Systematic oppression
Income inequality
The other stuff
And there's only one thing that I can do about it while, while being paid and being the center of attention
Healing the world with comedy
Making a literal difference
Metaphorically
A Jew walks into a bar and I've saved him a seat
That's healing the world with comedy
I'm a special kind of white guy
I self-reflected and I wanna be an agent of change
So I am gonna use my privilege for the good
American white guys
We've had the floor for at least four hundred years
So maybe I should just shut the fuck up
I'm bored
I don't wanna do that
There's gotta be another way
For me to help out without standing on the sidelines
The wait is over
I'm white and I'm here to save the day
Lord help me channel
Sandra Bullock in
The Blind Side
Healing the world with comedy
Making a literal difference
Metaphorically
And yes most likely they'll pay me but I'd do it for free
I am healing the world with comedy
If you wake up in a house that's full of smoke
Don't panic
Call me and I'll tell you a joke
If you see white men dressed in white cloaks
Don't panic
Call me and I'll tell you a joke
Oh shit
Should I be joking at a time like this
If you start to smell burning toast
You're having a stroke or overcooking your toast
If you wake up in a house that's full of smoke
Don't panic
Call me and I'll tell you a joke
If you see white men dressed in white cloaks
Don't panic
Call me and I'll tell you a joke
Oh shit
Should I be joking at a time like this
Somebody help me out 'cos I don't know
And I wanna help to leave this world better than I found it
And I fear that comedy won't help and the fear is not unfounded
Should I stop trying to be funny
Should I give away my money
No
I know what I gotta do
Healing the world with comedy
Making a literal difference
Metaphorically
I swore I'd never be back and now I'm back on my feet
And I'm healing the world with comedy
