Fake Happy
I love making you believe what you get is what you seeBut I’m so fake happy, I feel so fake happyAnd I bet everybody here is just as insincereWe’re all so fake happy and I know fake happy
I’ve been doing a good job of making ‘em thinkI’m quite alright, better hope I don’t blinkYou see, it’s easy when I’m stomping on a beatBut no one sees me when I crawl back underneath
If I smile with my teeth, bet you believe meIf I smile with my teeth, I think I believe me
Oh please, don’t ask me how I’ve beenDon’t make me play pretendOh no, oh what’s the use?Oh please, I bet everybody here is fake happy too
And if I go out tonight, dress up my fearsYou think I look alright with these mascara tearsSee, I’m gonna draw up my lipstick wider than my mouthAnd if the lights are low, they’ll never see me frown
If I smile with my teeth, bet you believe meIf I smile with my teeth, I think I believe me
Oh please, don’t ask me how I’ve beenDon’t make me play pretendOh no, oh what’s the use?Oh please, I bet everybody here is fake happy too
I know I said that I was doing good and that I’m happy nowI should’ve known when things were going good that’s when I’d get knocked down
Oh please, don’t ask me how I’ve beenDon’t make me play pretendOh no, oh what’s the use?Oh please, I bet everybody here is fake happy too
