Lyrics
"Laughter in the Dark (Margaret’s Blues)"
Style: Slow-burn, Texas shuffle blues / Raspy, soulful vocals
Tempo: Steady, mid-tempo groove
(Intro)
(Heavy 12-bar guitar riff, slow bassline, crisp snare kick)
(Verse 1)
You played the mother, wore the heavy crown,
Walking round the house just to shut the music down.
Stealing every smile, stealing every spark,
Drafting up rules to keep us in the dark.
Yeah, you thought you owned the whole damn room,
Trading every sunrise for a pocket full of gloom.
(Chorus)
Oh, Margaret, you thief of a good time,
Tried to turn my sunshine into a crime.
You took the joy and you locked the door,
But I don't listen to your rules no more.
Go on and sit there in your quiet house—
'Cause I’m the one laughing now!
(Verse 2)
You thought motherhood meant stealing light,
Leaving empty shadows in the middle of the night.
Counted every chuckle like a nickel you lost,
Never cared to notice what the cold heart cost.
You wanted silence, wanted everyone low,
Thought you had the final say in the whole damn show.
(Chorus)
Oh, Margaret, you thief of a good time,
Tried to turn my sunshine into a crime.
You took the joy and you locked the door,
But I don't listen to your rules no more.
Go on and sit there in your quiet house—
'Cause I’m the one laughing now!
(Guitar / Harmonica Solo)
(Upbeat, gritty blues shuffle—building in intensity to feel like a celebration)
(Bridge)
Now the jokes on you, the dust has set,
I got the life you couldn't get.
You tried to rob the room, tried to break the song,
Turns out, Margaret, you were dead-flat wrong!
(Chorus)
Oh, Margaret, you thief of a good time,
Tried to turn my sunshine into a crime.
You took the joy and you locked the door,
But I don't listen to your rules no more.
Go on and sit there in your quiet house—
'Cause I’m the one laughing now!
(Outro)
Yeah, I’m the one laughing now...
Look who got the last word, baby.
Keep your silence, Margaret.
I’ll keep the song.
(Final punchy blues chord resolving on a high, triumphant note)
