The Joke Explained

WILCO · Star Wars 2015 · Track 03 of 10

Written by Jeff Tweedy

I never held your gaze I never know my place Oh, I stare at the eyes Staring at my face It always ends in a tie There is no knitting the divide I cry at the joke explained

Ah but if I had known If I had known If I had known I would have never believed

I never smoked my chain Whoever measures the crest Ah they can have my broken chest It's a staring contest, in a hall of mirrors I sweat tears but I don't ever cry

Ah but if I had known If I had known If I had known I would have never believed

I never knelt at the news My parrot perished in the pews I climb back into the yolk It always ends in a tie There is no knitting the divide I cry at the joke explained

Ah if I had known If I had known If I had known I would have never believed

I would have never believed I would have never believed
