Cry Now Laugh Later Lyrics - Singles - Grace Jones

It's time now to return the favor 

Cry now, laugh, laugh later 

I don't know why I'm laughing 

I'm still wet from the rain 

I don't know why I'm laughing 

I'm still spotted from the stain 

I don't know why I'm laughing 

I'm burning from the flame 

I don't know why I'm laughing 

There's a storm running through my veins 

Cry now, laugh later 

Cry now, laugh later 

Sign out, I'll see you later 

Time now to return the favor 

You know I ain't lying 

It's so unreal on the other side 

I'll tell you why I'm crying 

Dad's ten grand on a 4 wheel drive 

I thought they wanted money 

Two thieves as they were passing by 

They tied me up so lonely 

And took the car out from under my eyes 

Cry now, laugh later 

Cry now, I'll get you later 

I'm just too tired now to return the favor 

Cry now, laugh later 

I don't know why I'm laughing 

Immigration breathing down my back 

Ain't got no money for a pay off 

Stay in jail until they send me back 

I don't know why I'm laughing 

I'm still hurting from the pain 

A foreigner in this hell hole 

He ain't never gunna touch me again 

Cry now, laugh later 

It's time now to return the favor 

You've got me crying now 

I'll laugh at you later 

Time now to return the favor 

I don't know why I'm laughing 

I'm still wet from the rain 

I don't know why I'm crying 

I'm still spotted from the stain 

You know I ain't lying 

I'm burning, burning up from the flame 

I don't know why I'm laughing 

I've got the storm running through my veins 

Cry now, laugh later 

Baby, got to sign out return later 

Just too tired now to return the favor 

Cry now, laugh later
