Smile Like You Mean It (Alastor's Offer) Songtext
Splendid! Ho ho ho!
I see big things coming your way (yes, indeedy!)
Now onto business
Everything′s better with a song, don't you agree?
This way good man, we′ve a deal to make
I assure this is a good thing for both our sakes
I'm happy to provide, but remember your side
Of a bargain I know you can't refuse to take
All I ask is when I boost your station
Remember who gave you this grand ovation
If I call on you for a favor or two
Don′t forget it′s now your obligation
Smile like you mean it
Take a chance and you could seize it
I'm sure you′ll do just swell
You're only down in hell
So come along with me and guarantee it
Smile your way through it
Grit your teeth and get right to it
Forget the rigmarole
And you can have it all
And make it that much better
When I see you fall
Oh, still unconvinced?
Well, why not take the word of a friend of mine
Husker?
They say, "You reap what you sow"
And in this town, you should damn well know
That what the Radio Demon wants
He′s gonna take (he's gonna take)
I′ve seen him kill Hell's greatest evils
Shake the status quo in upheaval
So, if you think you're gettin′ outta this
Big mistake
Now, now, sourpuss
Stop fuckin′ around! This is takin' forever
You always think you′re real
Slick and clever
Yet, I know what you like
And what makes you
Tick (tick), tick (tick)
Tick (ticktock)
Doin' what you want just the cost I pay
Enough of this shit, we ain′t got all day
Just sign the thing, so I can go
Get another fuckin' drink
In other words
Smile like you mean it
Risk it all and we can seize it
Until we hear that bell
We′re both stuck in hell
So, roll the dice and see if you can be it
Smile your way through it
Embrace the dark as though you knew it!
You can stand up tall
And act within my thrall
And I'll be there to watch you
As you take the fall
So what, my friend, whatever will it be?
I can give you what you crave, just not for free
You know what's on the line
And this whole thing′s on borrowed time
But you can trust the man who′s wearing his one guarantee
Smile like you mean it
Take a chance and you could seize it
I'm sure you′ll do just swell
You're only down in hell
So come along with me and guarantee it
Smile your way through it
Grit your teeth and get right to it
Forget the rigmarole
And you can have it all
And make it that much better
When I see you
Smile like you mean it
Risk it all and we can seize it
Until we hear that bell
We′re both stuck in hell
So roll the dice and see if you can be it
Smile your way through it
Embrace the dark as though you knew it
You can stand up tall
And act within my thrall
And I'll be there to watch you
Yes, I′ll watch you
I will make you, break you as you fall
I see big things coming your way (yes, indeedy!)
