You should smile when you kiss Don't let people say your emotionless Sentimentalist Laugh when you want Don't let people say you do it to taunt Or haunt Dance when you like Don't let people say its only for night That's trite And you can cry by yourself I'm here to tell you other people are hell sh** sells You can sing all alone Singing's just talking in tones Rhymestones And get off your cellphone Because they're tracking you home Skin and bones All alone When you do and when you do
So compile all your bliss Into memory books of all the people You miss It's heartless To keep all the change The root of evil's made us deranged We're chained To the walls of our jobs A school of fish on the fishing bobs We're slobs For the friends that we keep Never seem to keep us so neat That's sweet Like a closed candy store That couldn't stay open just one day more We're troubadores And the mgm lion's roar Is making you bored So pull the cord And close the door
