THE WHITLAMS - LAUGH IN THEIR FACES lyrics

We fall into old habits

Talk about giving it up after getting right on

Letter to your mother says you're doing everything you can

And I'm glad that she won't get the joke

You're as free as a ten year old

With a room of your very own

Doesn't matter at all what all those people say at home

With your good humour you're a hero

And you can stop them dragging you down

They've got nothing better to do

Sometimes you've got to laugh in their faces

It doesn't matter if your guitar is in hock

It doesn't matter if you owe us all a lot

'Cause you're getting happier by the minute

And they wouldn't have a clue about what it's like to be lazy

when you've got too much to do
