Painted-on smile
On a real life mask
Does the skin keep it in?
You don't have to ask
Single dim thought
On an empty chrome flask
How much can you take?
You've been disqualified
For loving his ways
Cards been punched
Mistakes have been made
Wash your hair and comb your face
Hit out and make some more today
Tried and true
Tried and give it all up on you
Bored and blue
Laugh as too
(hey hey hey)
Painted-on smile
On a real life mask
Is the skin keeping it in?
You fail to ask
Outlying the now
Of taking it to task
What else can you break?
Tried and true
Tried and true
Give it all up on you
Bored and blue
