So Why Did You Become a Comedian? Song Lyrics
So Why Did You Become a Comedian? by Sparks OK, but why did you become a comedian?
For the money?
Oh no, no
Though I've come from poverty and severity
And now have reached big money and obscenity
So why did you become a comedian?
For the fame?
Oh no, no
Though fame is like a flame, glorious, superfluous
So nice being famous for being infamous
OK, but why did you become a comedian?
Fear of death?
Oh no, no
'Cause you see I have sympathy for the abyss
A-B-Y-S-S!!! You illiterates!
That's why I must never
Never cast my eyes towards the abyss
Lady, that's quite an abyss you've got
So why, why did you become a comedian?
For the women?
Oh, no... well
OK, let me explain
