The Joke (america's Got Talent Performance) Lyrics - Benicio Bryant

You're feeling nervous, aren't you, boy? 

With your quiet voice and impeccable style 

Don't ever let them steal your joy 

And your gentle ways, to keep 'em from running wild 

They can kick dirt in your face 

Dress you down, and tell you that your place 

Is in the middle, when they hate the way you shine 

I see you tugging on your shirt 

Trying to hide inside of it and hide how much it hurts 

Let 'em laugh while they can 

Let 'em spin, let 'em scatter in the wind 

I have been to the movies, I've seen how it ends 

And the joke's on them

You get discouraged, don't you, girl? 

It's your brother's world for a while longer 

We gotta dance with the devil on a river 

To beat the stream 

Call it living the dream, call it kicking the ladder 

They come to kick dirt in your face 

To call you weak and then displace you 

After carrying your baby on your back across the desert 

I saw your eyes behind your hair 

And you're looking tired, but you don't look scared 

Let 'em laugh while they can 

Let 'em spin, let 'em scatter in the wind 

I have been to the movies, I've seen how it ends 

And the joke's on them
