Listen for the Laugh lyrics

by

Bruce Cockburn


[Intro]
Ah! Three, go. 

[Verse 1]
It's not the laughter of rain in the drain
It's not the laughter of a man in pain
It's not the laughter you can hide behind
It's not the laughter of a frightened mind

[Refrain]
Balanced on the brink only waiting for a shove
You better listen for the laugh of love
Balanced on the brink only waiting for a shove
You better listen for the laugh of love

[Verse 2]
It's not the laughter of the gloating rich
It's not the laughter of the sacred b*tch
It's not the laughter of the macho fool
It's not the laughter that obeys the rules

[Refrain]
More of a chainsaw in a velvet glove
You better listen for the laugh of love
More of a chainsaw in a velvet glove
You better listen for the laugh of love
[Verse 3]
It's not the laughter of a child with toys
It's not the laughter of the President's boys
It's not the laughter of the media king
This laughter doesn't sell you anything

[Refrain]
It's the wind in the wings of a diving dove
You better listen for the laugh of love
It's the wind in the wings of a diving dove
You better listen for the laugh of love
Whatever else you might be thinking of
You better listen for the laugh of love
