Why do you laugh at me? Yeah
Yeah, instead of why babe
And I'll do everything
Mott the Hoople
Why do you laugh at me?
That the man upstairs said to do
Let them laugh at me, if that's so fair
Well, we got a lot of space
And I'll cry for you
What do they get from making fun?
To be free until they laugh at me
That you don't wear a silk tie
Mott the Hoople
Why do you laugh at me?
Say hi instead of why
'Cause I don't care
Instead of why babe
It's got to be somewhere
Then maybe the next time
It's got to be sometime
Mott the Hoople
And if you don't like my face
Instead of why, babe
And I'll pray for you
It ain't me, who's going anywhere
Yes, well, I'll do it all for you
Instead of why babe
I'll do it all for you, babe
Instead of why babe
Instead of why
I'm gonna make that achievement
What do they care about
And I can walk by and say hi
Well, then I don't have to care
And you laugh at me
Instead of why, babe
The clothes that I wear?
