Smiling Phases

Do yourself a favor

Wake up to your mind

Life is what you make it

You see, but still you're blind

Get yourself together

Give before you take

You'll find out the hard way

Soon, you're gonna break

Hey, hey, hey

Smiling phases, going places

And if they bust you, you just

Keep on smiling through and through

And you'll be amazed at the gaze

On their faces as they sentence you

You don't need a lawyer

When you're in a fix

Someone got to pay up

Your friends are full of tricks

Profit you love is something

That you just can't buy

Own up to the truth, girl

Your love has gone on by

Hey, hey, hey

Smiling Phases bring you flowers

You can line 'em up and

You can watch 'em grow for hours

And you'll be amazed at the way

That they stare as they walk by your door

Do yourself a favor

Wake up to your mind

Life is what you make it

You see, but still you're blind

Get yourself together

Give before you take

You'll find out the hard way

Soon, you're gonna break

Hey, hey, hey

Smiling phases, going places

And if they bust you, you just

Keep on smiling through and through

And you'll be amazed at the gaze

On their faces as they sentence you
