"Laugh" (written by The Tokens: Hank Medress, Phil and Mitchell Margo, and Jay Siegal) was Jeff Barry's attempt at cutting a humerous song for the second LP. Unfortunately, his effort wasn't much better than Boyce & Hart's.

Lyrics:
Ev'ry face that I see is all wrapped up in frowns,
And unfortunately, it kind of gets me down.
Laugh,
'Cause the music is funny
Yeah, the bass sounds off-beat.
in't that neat.
Laugh,
When you lose all your money,
Or you can't find your shoes
To cover your feet.
It's not so hard to see exactly what I'm after.
Sometimes a tear should fall, but I require giggles and chuckles
