Last Laugh Lyrics - The Excitement Plan - Todd Snider

There's only two types of people as far as I can tell 

The terminally ill and the worried well 

Every time I've tried to climb out of this wishing well 

I've made it up only high enough to hurt when I fell 

Did you ever wonder 

Well of course you did 

Ive always wondered how you kept it all so well his 

Ive had my heart wide open since I was a kid 

I got a lot of love 

I got a lot of love 

Always inches from my ankle when he runs out of chain 

My neighbor's dog knows I know how to drive him insane 

I like to give him a little taste of what I'm feeling all day 

Always chasing after something slightly too far away 

You think that you're down to nothing 

You ain't seen nothing yet 

I am down and out to just about as nothing as it gets 

I'm working all day every day to pay my debts 

I need a lot of love 

I need a ton of it 

I got a lot of love 

I got a lot of love 

My old man was always such a bunch of wreckless fools 

Lived by his own set of not so golden rules 

The kind of show off that hated a show offs guts 

Ive always figured that's what must be driving us nuts 

I got a lot of love 

I got a lot of love 

I want a six foot tombstone two feet thick 

With the words engraved I tried to tell you all I was sick 

So you will know that I was right when you go walking on past 

You tried to tell me I was well but look who's laughing last 

Did you ever wonder 

Well of course you did 

Ive always wondered how you kept it all so well his 

Ive had my heart wide open since I was a kid 

I got a lot of love 

I got a lot of love
