Artist: Peter & Gordon. Album: Original Hits. Heyo! SONGLYRICS just got interactive. Baby, we're the jokers Livin' for fun in the glare of the sun Though were out of focus It's easy to see that we're happy to be as we are. We're laughin' all the time And laughin's not a crime So while we're in the prime of our lives Every day's a pantomime. Tell 'em we're the jokers Isn't it sad when the people get mad Tryin' to provoke us To follow the rules of society fools. And they say it's time to make amends On you the world depends Ignore it all, my friends While you can burn the candle at both ends.

The Jokers 19. I Feel Like Going Out 20. You've Had Better Times. In June 1964, Peter & Gordon became the very first British Invasion act after the Beatles to take the number one spot on the American charts with "A World Without Love. That hit, and their subsequent successes, were due as much or more to their important connections as to their talent. Peter Asher was the older brother of Jane Asher, Paul McCartney's girlfriend for much of the '60s. After Peter & Gordon broke up in 1968, Asher became an enormously successful producer, first as the director of A&R at the Beatles' Apple Records (where he worked on James Taylor's first album). Relocating to Los Angeles in the '70s, he was one of the principal architects of mellow California rock, producing Taylor and Linda Ronstadt.

Knight In Rusty Armour. Peter & Gordon were a British Invasion-era performing duo, formed by Peter Asher and Gordon Waller, that rocketed to fame in 1964 with "A World Without Love". Peter Asher's sister (the actress Jane Asher) was dating Paul McCartney (of The Beatles), and so Peter & Gordon recorded several songs written by McCartney, with or without John Lennon. Hits included "Nobody I Know", "True Love Ways" (Buddy Holly), "I Go To Pieces" (Del Shannon) who decided not to record the song himself, and "I Don't Want To See You Again".
