 The world is changing
 The planet's heating up
 What the **** is going on? (Recorded laughter)
 Rearranging
 It's like everything happened all at once
 Um, what the **** is going on? (Recorded laughter)
 The people rising in the streets
 The war, the drought
 The more I look, the more I see nothing to joke about
 Is comedy over?
 Should I leave you alone?
 'Cause, really, who's gonna go for joking at a time like this?
 Should I be joking at a time like this?
 I wanna help to leave this world better than I found it
 And I fear that comedy won't help
 And the fear is not unfounded
 Should I stop trying to be funny?
 Should I give away my money? No!
 What do I do?
 Healing the world with comedy
 The indescribable power of your comedy
 The world needs direction
 From a white guy like me (Bingo)
 Who is healing the world with comedy
 That's it!
 The world is so ****ed up. Systematic oppression, income inequality, the other stuff... And there's only one thing that I can do about it. While— While being paid and being the center of attention
 Healing the world with comedy
 Making a literal difference, metaphorically
 A Jew walks into a bar, and I've saved him a seat
 That's healing the world with comedy
 I'm a special kind of white guy
 I self-reflected, and I want to be an agent of change
 So I am gonna use my privilege for the good (Very cool, way to go!)
 American white guys
 We've had the floor for at least four-hundred years
 So maybe I should just shut the **** up
 I'm bored
 I don't wanna do that
 There's got to be another way (Yes)
 For me to help out without standing on the sidelines (Never)
 The wait is over
 I'm white, and I'm here to save the day
 Lord, help me channel Sandra Bullock in The Blind Side (Sandra Bullock)
 Healing the world with comedy
 Making a literal difference, metaphorically
 And yes, most likely, they'll pay me, but I'd do it for free
 I am healing the world with comedy
 If you wake up in a house that's full of smoke
 Don't panic, call me and I'll tell you a joke
 If you see white men dressed in white cloaks
 Don't panic, call me and I'll tell you a joke
 Oh, shit
 Should I be joking at a time like this?
 If you start to smell burning toast
 You're having a stroke or overcooking your toast
 If you wake up in a house that's full of smoke
 Don't panic, call me and I'll tell you a joke
 If you see white men dressed in white cloaks
 Don't panic, call me and I'll tell you a joke
 Oh, shit
 Should I be joking at a time like this?
 Somebody help me out 'cause I don't know
 And I want to help to leave this world better than I found it
 And I fear that comedy won't help, but the fear is not unfounded
 Should I stop trying to be funny?
 Should I give away my money? No!
 I know what I gotta do
 Healing the world with comedy
 Making a literal difference, metaphorically
 I swore I'd never be back, but now, I'm back on my feet
 And I'm healing the world with comedy
