Laughing With
Regina Spektor - 《Live In London》
No one laughs at God in a hospital
No one laughs at God in a war
God when they're starving or freezing or so very poor
when the doctor calls after some routine tests
when it's gotten real late
and their kid's not back from that party yet
when their airplane starts to uncontrollably shake
when they see the one they love
someone else and they hope that they're mistaken
No one laughs at God when the cops
knock on their door and they say
"We've got some bad new sir"
when there's a famine fire or flood
At a cocktail party while listening to a good God-themed joke or
he hates us and they get so red in the head you
think that they're about to choke
When told he'll give you money if you just pray the right way
And when presented like a genie
Who does magic like Houdini
Or grants wishes like Jiminy Cricket and Santa Claus
No one laughs at God in a hospital
No one laughs at God in a war
when they've lost all they got and they don't know what for
No one laughs at God on the day they realize
that the last sight they'll ever see is a pair of hateful eyes
when they're saying their goodbyes
At a cocktail party while listening to a good God-themed joke or
Or when the crazies say he hates us and
they get so red in the head you think that they're about to choke
When told he'll give you money if you just pray the right way
And when presented like a genie
Who does magic like Houdini
Or grants wishes like Jiminy Cricket and Santa Claus
No one laughs at God in a hospital
No one laughs at God in a war
No one laughs at God in a hospital
No one laughs at God in a war
No one's laughing at God in a hospital
No one's laughing at God in a war
when they're starving or freezing or so very poor
We're all laughing with God
