lol- Bruce is not known for funny songs, that's for sure! Although he has a few, like "Sherry Darling", but he just doesn't do "irony" (maybe not the right word) like Jim can.
Some people seem to only like Bruce's "darker" material. He once joked about how he wrote a bunch of songs about being happy- i.e. the Human Touch and Lucky Town albums, and nobody liked them. His new album is "happier" too- very poppy, and some people don't like it, either. Most say the lyrics are awful- too simple.
