Smiling Songtext

Smile!
Friends!
Watching you!

At the party, at the bus stop, at the bar,
You′re lookin' at women because your score is under par.
When you find her, it doesn′t mean anything.
You wonder why your life is so boring.

A mind is a terrible thing to waste.
You would gladly waste it just to save face.
Her desire is your wish, and without it you are lost;
Integrity is fragile, but you ignored the cost.

Smiling when your friends are watching
Smiling when your friends are watching you
Smiling when your friends are watching
Smiling when your friends are watching you


One night stand, car keys in hand,
You've fullfilled your gender's sexual demand.
Are you feeling insecure and empty,
When you′re rushing to report it to your peers!

A mind is a terrible thing to waste.
You would gladly waste it just to save face.
Her desire is your wish, your integrity is lost;
Integrity is fragile, but you ignored the cost.

Smiling when your friends are watching
Smiling when your friends are watching you
Smiling when your friends are watching
Smiling when your friends are watching you

Smiling when your friends are watching
Smiling when your friends are watching you
Smiling when your friends are watching
SSmiling when your friends are watching you
Smiling when your friends are watching
Smiling when your friends are watching

Smile!
Friends!
Watching you!
