I Am Not A Joke

(Steven Soucy)

This lyric is both quite serious and also tongue in cheek simultaneously. If that makes sense. Do you get to a point where you are sick of people not taking you seriously? I think we all do. But I'll tell you simply, I Am Not A Joke

Verse

I tried so hard to be a man, 
Who stood up tall and could be admired
But no one seemed to get me
The way I thought, how I was wired
Even when I held a serious tone
And gave my best straight face
Everyone scoffed and sneered
Like I was the clown of this place

Chorus

But I've got news for all of you
Even if I'm not enlightened or woke
I'm a man with thoughts and feelings
And I am not a joke

Verse

The pretty girls never fell for me
They never even looked my way
That big promotion was never to be
I just watched my dreams slip away
It's almost to a point
I wonder can you see through me?
But there's still time
To show what I can be

Bridge

They say no man is an island 
But I feel alone on this shore
It's finally time for me to shine
Like I never have before

Chorus

But I've got news for all of you
Even if I'm not enlightened or woke
I'm a man with thoughts and feelings
And I am not a joke

This time I'll have the last laugh
When I unleash my Master stroke
Then you'll finally understand
That I am not a joke
