Lyrics:

Tried to be cool
Tried to play it legit
Tried to dance around the trouble
Now I'm standing in it
And I just can't believe that
The whole world's laughing at me...

The kids in the street
The ladies uptown
Everybody's smiling
But the guy with the frown
And I can hardly believe that
The whole world's laughing at me...

They say at playing the fool
Everyone must take a turn
But when the spotlight lands on you
It burns, oh how it burns
You never learn...

Can't try it again
No way to restart
No turning back the clock
And un-breaking my heart
And I just can't believe that
The whole world's laughing at me...

Yeah, the whole world's laughing!

Just can't believe that
The whole world's laughing at me...
Why me?

No I just can't believe that
The whole world's laughing at me...
