When the Laughter Stops Yard Act (Ft. Katy J Pearson)

[Verse 1: James Smith]
I got the call for the audition
It was the chance of a lifetime
It said, "If all requirements of this role come to fruition
You'll never work another day in your life"

So I let my hair grow wrong, don't shave my face
I got some brand-new boots and gained a bit of weight
But when I finally got the script in for the role which I was hoping
It said I'd play the victim, shot dead in the cold open

[Pre-Chorus: James Smith & Katy J Pearson, Katy J Pearson]
Time's up, don't be scared
The future's got a room without a view in your own head
Head down, no comment
It's just a matter of opinion

[Chorus: Katy J Pearson]
Don't let no one ever know about the burden that you're smuggling
You dry your eyes at the gate to hide the struggling
The stories that you're juggling
The fear you must be funnelling
Bury till you're burrowing
Pain is such a funny thing

No one needs to know about the burden that you're smuggling
You dry your eyes at the gate to hide the struggling
The stories that you're juggling
The fear you must be funnelling
Bury till you're burrowing
Pain is such a funny thing
