The Mighty Mighty Bosstones - The Punch Line lyrics

Sometimes, sometimes you've got to be the punch line Well and sometimes, sometimes you get to tell the joke There's no difference on the end that you end up on I've got a preference I'll defend right, right over wrong I won't wait till they say when Or wait for them to tell me when I can Why would I wait for them If I waited for them then I'd be no different than them And I'm so certain that I am Someone, someone will try to be the hammer And someone, somebody ends up as the nail Who cares what end you end up on Hammers break and nails bend I'll still take right, right over wrong And that's what I'll defend That's what I'm defending I won't wait till they say when Or wait for them to tell me when I can Why would I wait for them If I waited for them then I'd be no different than them And I'm so certain that I am (chorus x2) Sometimes you've got to be the punch line Sometimes you get to tell the joke
