So Why Did You Become a Comedian?

So Why Did You Become a Comedian?

(album: Annette (Unlimited Edition) - 2021)

OK, but why did you become a comedian?
For the money?

Oh no, no
Though I've come from poverty and severity
And now have reached big money and obscenity

So why did you become a comedian?
For the fame?

Oh no, no
Though fame is like a flame, glorious, superfluous
So nice being famous for being infamous

OK, but why did you become a comedian?
Fear of death?

Oh no, no
'Cause you see I have sympathy for the abyss
A-B-Y-S-S!!! You illiterates!

That's why I must never
Never cast my eyes towards the abyss

Lady, that's quite an abyss you've got

So why, why did you become a comedian?
For the women?

Oh, no... well
OK, let me explain
