Tony Bennett – They All Laughed lyrics
They all laughed at Christopher Columbus
When he said "The world was round"
They all laughed when Edison recorded sound
They all laughed at Wilbur and his brother
When they said "Man could fly"
They told Marconi, wireless was a phony
It's the same old cry
They laughed at me wanting you
Said I was reaching for the moon
But all you came through
Now they'll have to change their tune
They all said we never could be happy
They laughed at us and how!
Ho, ho, ho!
Who's got the last laugh now?
They all laughed at Rockefeller Center
And now they're fighting to get in
They all laughed at Whitney and his cotton gin
They all laughed at Fulton and his steamboat
Hershey and his chocolate bar
Ford and his Lizzie, he kept the laughers busy
That's how people are
They laughed at me wanting you
Said it would be, "Hello, Goodbye"
But all you came through
Now they're eating humble pie
They all said we'd never get together
Darling, take a bow
Ho, ho, ho!
Who's got the last laugh?
Hee, hee, hee!
Let's at the past laugh
Ha, ha, ha!
Who's got the last laugh now?
When he said "The world was round"
They all laughed when Edison recorded sound
They all laughed at Wilbur and his brother
When they said "Man could fly"
They told Marconi, wireless was a phony
It's the same old cry
They laughed at me wanting you
Said I was reaching for the moon
But all you came through
Now they'll have to change their tune
They all said we never could be happy
They laughed at us and how!
Ho, ho, ho!
Who's got the last laugh now?
They all laughed at Rockefeller Center
And now they're fighting to get in
They all laughed at Whitney and his cotton gin
They all laughed at Fulton and his steamboat
Hershey and his chocolate bar
Ford and his Lizzie, he kept the laughers busy
That's how people are
They laughed at me wanting you
Said it would be, "Hello, Goodbye"
But all you came through
Now they're eating humble pie
They all said we'd never get together
Darling, take a bow
Ho, ho, ho!
Who's got the last laugh?
Hee, hee, hee!
Let's at the past laugh
Ha, ha, ha!
Who's got the last laugh now?
