Spoken:



The other day, I met a girl named Joy

She said, Come here, Im going to make you my Joy Boy

Well, things went good, things went bad

Now every time I think of Joy it makes me sad



It makes me . . . sad



The other day, I met a girl named Joy

She said, Roy, Im going to make you my Joy Boy

Well, she took me for a ride, sort of a joy ride

Now every time I think of Joy, I get all weird inside



Sung:



Joy to the world was a beautiful girl

But to me Joy meant only sorrow



Spoken:



Now, if you havent got an answer, youd never have a question

And if you never had a question, then youd never have a problem

But if you never had a problem, well everyone would be happy

But if everyone was happy, thered never be a love song



Joy to the world was a beautiful girl

But to me Joy meant only sorrow



The other day, I met a girl named Joy

She said, Come here, Im going to make you all clammy inside

Well, things went good, things went bad

Things went good and things went bad

Good, bad, good, bad, good, bad



Sung:



Joy to the world was a beautiful girl

But to me Joy meant only sorrow

Joy to the world was a beautiful girl

But to me Joy meant only sorrow
