From the recording Long Beach Calling
Lyrics
Tell no one - the time or place
For putting on your favorite face
The tragic look - the hollow glow
You’re beautiful but who would know?
Lights go down - it fits the mood
You walk the walk with attitude
You are the bomb and so you’ve heard
That Happy is a dirty word
Chorus:
You look better when you Smile
An Ordinary Smile
I love it when you Smile
Every day - you pray for rain
Each compliment is such a strain
And by the way - it’s by design
It’s all to gauge reaction time
(Chorus)
Bridge #1:
You get so wrapped up in
Tell me - How this happened?
(Solo-then Chorus)
Bridge #2:
You get so down hearted
Tell me - How this started?
Perfect hair- Perfect eyes
A Perfect shape-A Perfect size
You shouldn’t fix what isn’t broke
But come on - Learn to take a joke
(Chorus- repeat)
