Joker James - The Who

Joker James, you did it again, caused somebody pain

You lived up to your name, Jimmy, Joker James

Sally was a stamp collector, pretty little girl

One day she dated James, bringing love into her world

A tense romantic moment as they sat down on the couch

The whoopee cushion roared and I’m afraid it’s over now

(He's a joker…)

Joker James, you did it again, caused somebody pain

You lived up to your name, didn’t you, Joker James

Lucy was a cool one, always got her high

Then she dated James and true love took her higher

The jester had suggested a new way to get stoned

Put itching powder down her neck and now she’s all alone

Joker James, you did it again, caused somebody pain

You lived up to your name, didn’t you, Joker James

Sense of humor cannot woo her

You just threw another wheeze her way

Wizard pranks won’t get you thanks

You just threw another love away

Alice was a different kettle, always wore a smile

Her skin felt like heaven and laughter all the while

Her sense of humor throws him and deep in love he falls

But when he tries to sign the paper the rubber pencil falls

(He's a joker…)

Joker James, you’re not to blame, the joke’s on you, now you’re blue

It’s such a shame, but that’s the game, Joker James

Joker James, you did it again, caused somebody pain

You lived up to your name, Jimmy, Joker James
