(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?
