(B-side to 'One of Us', December 1981) He stands towering over me beside my bed Losing his head.....Tells me I must take him seriously Frowning 'pon the usual way He's such a clever guy Then I wonder, should I laugh or cry? His presence in the striped pyjamas that I bought Trousers too short Gives me hours of philosophy Carries on the way he does And me I get so tired And I wonder should I laugh or cry I don't mind if his banner flies A fool's pride in his eyes Standing there on his toes to grow in size All I see is a big belief Halfway up to the end He's wrapped up in the warm and sacred truth Of an eternal lie So should I laugh or cry? Strange how dangerously indifferent I have grown Cold as a stone No more pain where there was pain before Far away he rambles on I feel my throat go dry And I wonder, should I laugh or cry? I don't mind if his banner flies A fool's pride in his eyes Standing there on his toes to grow in size All I see is a big belief Halfway up to the end He's wrapped up in the warm and sacred truth Of an eternal lie So should I laugh or cry?
