If He Makes You Laugh

Does he make you laugh
Like I used to?
Does he love all
The funny little things about you?
I've known since you said we were through
Some day I'd have to see another kissing you
Cause I love you much too much to ignore
That I was never any good for you, so
Chorus:
If he makes you laugh
If he does all the little things you need from a man
Well, then I guess I'm happy for you
I guess I'll move on too
I shoulda known...
That I'd mess things up (mess things up)
I'd want you hear so close but I'd never say
I just made a show of pushing you away
I know that we're just friends and nothing more
Still I can't help my self, girl, I adore you, but
Chorus
So does he make you laugh?
Is he so kind?
Does the thought of me just never cross your mind?
Then I'll get moving on to my own things
I got other roads to travel, other songs to sing
Cause I love you much too much to ignore
That he has always been the right one for you
Chorus

I went and got myself a day job
I got bills to pay
Can't make no money playing Reggae music
Can't find no way
Cause the cost of living get so high
But I don't see no rich man cry
Tell the poor they must get strong
And they go get their hustle on
Chorus:
Cause I'll be on my 9-5
The one drop won't keep my kids alive
Cause I'm talking 'bout Friday through Sunday
I'll keep you moving those behinds
But Monday morning I'm on my grind cause
Reggae don't pay the rent
Tell me something:
If killers and thieves can get parole
Can the workin' kind of people get some rent control
Chorus
