"The Joker" lyrics - LADY GAGA

LADY GAGA
"The Joker"

There's always a joker in the pack
There's always a lonely clown
The poor laughing fool falls on his back
And everyone laughs when he's down
There's always a funny man in the game
But he's only funny by mistake
And everyone laughs at him just the same
They don't see his lonely heart break

[Pre-Chorus:]
They don't care as long as there is a jester, just a fool
As foolish as he can be
There's always a joker, that's the rule
But fate deals the hand that I see

[Chorus:]
The joker is me, the joker is me
The joker is me, the joker is me
The joker is me

Drink the poison 'cause there's always a loser in the game
The court loves to watch them cry
The royals shout, "This queen needs to sing"
To ruffle the scene of the crime
The king wears a funny suit, he's a clown
The crowd rumbles with their roars
And everyone watches as he declines
The queen pierces him with a sword

[Pre-Chorus:]
I don't care as long as there is a wild man in the deck
As long as I see his frown
Then I won't be lonely, that's a fact
I stand here and wait for his sound, ha, ha, ha

[Chorus:]
The joker is me, the joker is me
The joker is me, the joker is me
The joker is me

[Outro:]
The joker is me
The joker is me
