《I Was Only Joking》歌词

[00:00:00] Rod Stewart I Was Only Joking

[00:00:41] Ever since I was a kid at school

[00:00:46] I messed around with all the rules

[00:00:51] Apologised then realised

[00:00:54] I'm not different after all

[00:01:00] Me and the boys thought we had it sussed

[00:01:04] Valentinos all of us

[00:01:09] My dad said we looked ridiculous

[00:01:13] But boy we broke some hearts

[00:01:17] In and out of jobs' running free

[00:01:22] Waging war with society

[00:01:27] Dumb blank faces stare back at me

[00:01:31] But nothing ever changed

[00:01:35] Promises made in the heat of the night

[00:01:40] Creeping home before it got too light

[00:01:45] I wasted all that precious time

[00:01:48] And blamed it on the wine

[00:01:52] I was only joking my dear

[00:01:56] Looking for a way to hide my fear

[00:02:01] What kind of fool was I

[00:02:06] I could never win

[00:02:14] Never found a compromise

[00:02:18] Collected lovers like butterflies

[00:02:23] Illusions of that grand first prize

[00:02:27] Are slowly wearing thin

[00:02:32] Susy baby you were good to me

[00:02:37] Giving love unselfishly

[00:02:41] But you took it all too seriously

[00:02:45] I guess it had to end

[00:02:49] I was only joking my dear

[00:02:53] Looking for a way to hide my fear

[00:02:58] What kind of fool was I

[00:03:03] I could never win

[00:04:45] Now you ask me if I'm sincere

[00:04:49] That's the question that I always fear

[00:04:54] Verse seven is never clear

[00:04:58] But I'll tell you what you want to hear

[00:05:02] I try to give you all you want

[00:05:07] But giving love is not my strongest point

[00:05:12] If that's the case it's pointless going on

[00:05:16] I'd rather be alone

[00:05:21] 'Cause what I'm doing must be wrong

[00:05:25] Pouring my heart out in a song

[00:05:30] Owning up for prosperity

[00:05:34] For the whole damn world to see

[00:05:39] Quietly now while I turn a page

[00:05:44] Act one is over without costume change

[00:05:50] The principal would like to leave the stage

[00:05:55] The crowd don't understand
