Only One Not Smiling Songtext
Clap along, clap along
He′s tipped to be the next big thing
But why do I feel like I'm watching an advert every time he sings?
Fair enough, fair enough, everyone′s trying to make a living
Everybody needs to make a deal with diet coke to keep all the plates spinning
Am I the only one not smiling in this place?
Sale now on, sale now on
The big discounts of the year
The crowds outside this store are bigger than a Hollywood premier
And I've seen, I've seen two sets of punches thrown
The first for an HD TV, the second for a phone
Am I the only one not smiling in this place?
What′s this, what′s this? Is it 1955?
He says she's asking for trouble with that dress that shows her thighs
Now, with a bottle of wine, bottle of wine
Oh, I see him making a move
And then I hear him call her frigid just because she refused
She′s the only one not smiling in this place
Drink up, drink up, I really want to leave
Those red-faced men in here are shouting stuff wouldn't believe
Anyone, anyone, who′s not what they know
Is a direct threat that might infect that status quo
And they're the only ones not smiling in this place
Time out, time out, I wanna get off this ride
I′ve been to the top three times and three times I though I'd died
Can I opt out, opt out? It's too fast for me
You may wanna see the world as a blur but I would rather sightsee
How will this madness ever end?
Are we the only ones still smiling in this place?
What do you know, what do you know?
Here I feel just fine
I′m not waiting sun and face to hear something out of line
What do we do, what do we do?
I know it might sound strange
But I can feel the turning point if you can see a change
What do you know, what do you know?
Here I feel just fine
I′m not waiting sun and face to hear something out of line
What do we do, what do we do?
I know it might sound strange
But I can feel the turning point if you can see a change
He′s tipped to be the next big thing
But why do I feel like I'm watching an advert every time he sings?
Fair enough, fair enough, everyone′s trying to make a living
Everybody needs to make a deal with diet coke to keep all the plates spinning
Am I the only one not smiling in this place?
Sale now on, sale now on
The big discounts of the year
The crowds outside this store are bigger than a Hollywood premier
And I've seen, I've seen two sets of punches thrown
The first for an HD TV, the second for a phone
Am I the only one not smiling in this place?
