Who's Laughing Now
Lyrics:
[English]
(birds tweeting)
(school bell rings)
(upbeat music starts)
- ♪ Mummy they call me names ♪
They wouldn't let me play,
I'd run home sit and cry almost everyday
- Hey Jessica you looking like an alien
With green skin you don't fit in this playpen
- Oh they pulled my hair
They took away my chair.
I keep it in and pretend that I didn't care
- Hey Jessica you're so funny,
You've got teeth just like Bugs Bunny
- Oh so you think you know me now?
Have you forgotten how,
You would make me feel when you drag my spirit down?
But thank you for the pain
It made me raise my game
And I'm still rising, I'm still rising, yeah
So make your jokes, go for broke
Blow your smoke, you're not alone
But who's laughing now?
But who's laughing now?
So raise the bar, hit me hard,
Play your cards, be a star.
But who's laughing now?
But who's laughing now?
'Cause I'm in LA,
You think I've made my fame,
But FB makes us friends,
When you only really know my name
- Oh Jessie we knew you could make it
I've got a track, and I'd love you to take it
- So now because I'm signed,
You think my pockets lined.
Fours years down and I'm still waiting in the line.
- Oh, Jessie I saw you on YouTube,
I tagged old photo's from when we was at school
- Oh, so you think you know me now?
Have you forgotten how,
You would make me feel when you drag my spirit down?
But thank you for the pain.
It made me raise my game,
And I'm still rising, I'm still rising, yeah.
So make yours jokes, go for broke,
Blow your smoke, you're not alone.
But who's laughing now?
But who's laughing now?
So raise the bar, hit me hard,
Play your cards, be a star.
But who's laughing now?
But who's laughing now?
- Jessie
- She broke out of the box.
Swallowed your pride, you got that ego cough
Let the haters hate.
You're like way to late.
See, I got a message from you,
- Hola, I'm proud of you
- Oh my God babe, your voice is like, wow
- My reply, "Who's laughing now?"
Oh so you think you know me now?
Have you forgotten how,
You would make me feel when you drag my spirit down?
But thank you for the pain,
It made me raise my game,
And I'm still rising, I'm still rising, yeah.
So make your jokes, go for broke,
Blow your smoke, you're not alone.
But who's laughing now?
But who's laughing now?
So raise the bar, hit me hard,
Play your cards, be a star.
But who's laughing now?
But who's laughing now?
So make your jokes, go for broke,
Blow your smoke, you're not alone.
But who's laughing now?
But who's laughing now?
So raise the bar, hit me hard,
Play your cards, be a star.
But who's laughing now?
Who's laughing, laughing now?
Who's laughing, laughing now?
Who's laughing, laughing now?
Who's laughing, laughing now?
Who's laughing, laughing now?
Who's laughing, laughing now?
Who's laughing, laughing now? ♪
