[Intro]
Love was the egg, see

[Verse 1]
And it was born in a cloud with silver lining
Uh-huh
But it broke
I mean it hatched on the ground so time flew right by me
And voila

[Pre-Hook]
I know you thought that life was gon' be easy when you didn't call
You found out you were wrong
See, I know you thought your life was gon' be easy
You thought you had it all
But you found that you were wrong

[Hook]
See, maybe, there was something wrong
And you weren't telling me, no (Nooooo)
See, see, maybe, the laugh's on me (joke's on me)
And life was telling me a joke

[Verse 2]
Well, they say that if it's yours
And you let it go
If it comes back to you
It was yours all along

Well, I let you go, along with those lies from you
I wonder what else lies in you
Or did the lies just eat it gone

[Pre-Hook]
I know you thought that life was gon' be easy when you didn't call
You found out you were wrong
See, I know you thought your life was gon' be easy
You thought you had it all
But you found that you were wrong

[Hook]
See, maybe, there was something wrong
And you weren't telling me, no (Nooooo)
See, see, maybe, the laugh's on me (joke's on me)
And life was telling me a joke
Babe

[Interlude: Pharrell]
Hold it now
Y'all there?
How do you feel right now
Yeah me too
Hey Yeah
Oh, babe!
Hold it now

[Outro: Pharrell]
Y'all alright?
See
Do you remember... what it's like to wake up in... her love nest?
Get it, love nest
And now she's gone, gone, gone, gone
At which point you realize...
Life is but a joke
And the laugh's on you
It's funny, right?
Babe!

N.E.R.D

N.E.R.D. (officially stylized as NER*D, as seen on their covers) is a backronym that stands for No-One Ever Really Dies.

N.E.R.D. is a hip-hop and rock band whose members include Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo, also known as The Neptunes, and Shae Haley. The band was formed as a side project by the Neptunes in 1999. Williams and Hugo had known each other since 1985 when they were 12, and they met Shae Haley a few years later in high school. Hugo and Williams signed a deal when they graduated high school in 1992 and eventually, Hailey joined them when N.E.R.D. was formed.

In September 2001 the band released their first album, In Search Of in Europe. They used digital production for the project but when they prepared for the worldwide release a year later they opted to re-record the album with a live funk rock band known as Spymob. Two years later in March of 2004, they released their second album, Fly or Die. Unfortunately, the two albums didn’t have nearly as much success as The Neptunes production work—collectively the two albums barely broke a million copies sold. In 2005 the group supposedly disbanded because of a dispute with Virgin Records, but Pharrell contradicted this claim in an April 2008
