About I Started A Joke

"I Started a Joke" is a 1968 song by the English rock band Bee Gees from their album Idea, which was released in September of that year. Curiously, it was not released as a single in the UK, where buyers who could not afford the album had to content themselves with a Polydor version by Heath Hampstead. Songs for the Idea album were completed on June 25 (except for the song "I've Gotta Get a Message to You" which was recorded on July 12 during the Odessa sessions). .

I Started A Joke Lyrics

[00:13.68] I started a joke
[00:17.35] Which started the whole world crying
[00:24.29] But I didn't see
[00:30.02] That the joke was on me, oh no
[00:39.18] I started to cry
[00:42.93] Which started the whole world laughing
[00:50.08] Oh, if I'd only seen
[00:56.45] That the joke was on me
[01:02.03] I looked at the skies
[01:07.77] Running my hands over my eyes
[01:14.97] And I fell out of bed
[01:20.36] Hurting my head from things that I'd said
[01:24.59]
[01:28.56] 'Til I finally died
[01:32.46] Which started the whole world living
[01:39.95] Oh, if I'd only seen
[01:44.08]
[01:46.46] That the joke was on me
[01:52.12] I looked at the skies
[01:58.09] Running my hands over my eyes
[02:05.23] And I fell out of bed
[02:10.46] Hurting my head from things that I'd said
[02:18.94] 'Til I finally died
[02:22.98] Which started the whole world living
[02:29.93] Oh, if I'd only seen, oh yeah
[02:37.23] That the joke was on me, oh no
[02:43.94] That the joke was on me
[02:49.12]
[02:52.50] Oh, no, no, no
[03:00.68]
