Laugh Laugh
Words and music by Ron Elliot
Peaked at number 16 for The Beau Brummels
on 77 WABC, New York weekly surveys in 1965
I hate to say it but I told you so.
Don't mind my preaching to you.
I said, "don't trust him", baby, now you know.
You don't learn everything there is to know in school
Wouldn't believe me when I gave advice.
I said that he was a tease.
If you want help you better ask me nice.
So be sincere, convince me with a "pretty please."
Laugh Laugh, I thought I'd die
It seemed so funny to me.
Laugh Laugh, you met a guy
who taught you how it feels to be
Lonely, oh so lonely
Don't think I'm being funny when I say.
You got just what you deserve.
I can't help feeling you found out today.
You thought you were too good you had a lot of nerve.
Won't say I'm sorry for the things I said.
I'm glad he packed up to go.
You kept on bragging he was yours instead.
Found you don't know everything there is to know.
Laugh Laugh, I thought I'd die
It seemed so funny to me.
Laugh Laugh, you met a guy
who taught you how it feels to be
Lonely, oh so lonely
Before I go I'd like to say one thing.
Don't close your ears to me.
Take my advice and you'll find out that being.
Just another girl won't cause you misery.
You say you can get any boy at your call.
Don't be so smug or else.
You'll find you can't get any boy at all. (pronounced at tall)
You'll wind up an old lady sitting on the shelf.
Laugh Laugh, I thought I'd die
It seemed so funny to me.
Laugh Laugh, you met a guy
who taught you how it feels to be
Lonely, oh so lonely
