If They Can't Take A Joke
I was flying in a big jet airplane, nervous as hell
When the pilot come on the intercom, he said things ain't going too well
We got an engine out, there's a fire in the gully, but we'll make it down okay
But he forgot to shut the microphone off, and everybody heard him say
He said fuck em, if they can't take a joke
If they can't see the wind, then I don't give a shit
So fuck em, fuck em, fuck em
If they can't take a joke
I was sitting in the sunshine drinking beer and feeling good
Thinking maybe I shouldn't concern myself, then again maybe I should
I said lorda fuck, you got so much love, but there's so much pain and fear
I felt a mighty tap on my shoulder, then I heard a rumbly voice in my ear
He said fuck em, if they can't take a joke
If they can't see the wind, then I don't give a shit
So fuck em, fuck em, fuck em
If they can't take a joke
There's a lot of helpful sayings in this world to see you through
Like so what, who cares, take a bite of this drop dead big deal and screw you
But all this worldly wisdom, too hard to recall
So there's just one thing to remember, and I think it covers it all
Matter of fact, I know it does
Fuck em, if they can't take a joke
If they can't see the wind, then I don't give a shit
So fuck em, fuck em, fuck em
If they can't take a joke
If they can't see the wind, then I don't give a shit
So fuck em, fuck em, fuck em
If they can't take a joke
Thanks for watching!
