Nik Kershaw - Can t Get Arrested:
[CHORUS]
You ve got to laugh, though it s not funny
You ve got to laugh, or you would surely cry
Can t buy a chance for love nor money
Can t get arrested however hard you try
[VERSE 1]
Your heart is numb you ve screamed and shouted
Banged on the door relentlessly
They should have come no doubt about it
To lock you up and throw away the key
[CHORUS]
You ve got to laugh, though it s not funny
You ve got to laugh, or you would surely cry
Can t buy a chance for love nor money
Can t get arrested however hard you try
[VERSE 2]
It s so unfair how unfair this is
You ve done some things beyond the pale
You ve broken hearts and stolen kisses
Still not enough to get you into gaol
[INSTRUMENTAL]
[BRIDGE]
Well, it must feel like you re invisible
Say, do they know that you re alive
So what you gonna try now?
Hey what you gonna try?
[VERSE 3]
And now it s time to rest your poor head
You tried it all, You tried it all
You might as well have stayed in your bed
You might as well be a flower on the wall
[CHORUS]
You ve got to laugh, though it s not funny
You ve got to laugh, or you would surely cry
Can t buy a chance for love nor money
Can t get arrested however hard you try
