Track 2 on Faith No More’s 5th album. This was released as the second single from the album.
In live set-lists, this was titled “Nirvana” as it was written on the day of Kurt Cobain’s death. It is not about him, however, even though it was rumored to be.
Interestingly, Courtney Love was in an ea...
[Verse 1]
All of that thick time without you
Has made me so thick and drunk
"And it's okay to laugh about it"
I said, "It's okay to laugh about it"
[Verse 2]
Runnin' twice as fast to stay in the same place
Don't catch my breath 'til the end of the day
And I'd rather be shot in the face
Than hear what you're goin' to say
[Pre-Chorus]
One day the wind will come up
And you'll come up empty again
And who'll be laughing then?
You'll come up empty again
There's no reason, no explanation
So play the violins
[Chorus 1]
It's always funny until someone gets hurt
And then it's just hilarious
It's always funny until someone gets hurt
And then it's just hilarious
[Verse 3]
You beat me every time you blink
If only I did not have to think
Think about you crackin' a smile
Think about you all the while
[Pre-Chorus]
One day the wind will come up
And you'll come up empty again
And who'll be laughing then?
You'll come up empty again
There's no reason, no explanation
So play the violins
[Chorus 2]
On the ricochet, it's gonna hit you
It's always funny until someone gets hurt
On the ricochet, it's gonna hit you
It's always funny until someone gets hurt
You can laugh at me when it misses you
And you can laugh at me when it misses you (Just hilarious)
You can laugh at me, oh when it misses you (It's always funny until someone gets hurt)
(And then it's just hilarious)
It's always funny until someone gets hurt
And then it's just hilarious
It's always funny until someone gets hurt
And then it's just hilarious
Ricochet was written by Mike Bordin & Billy Gould & Mike Patton.
