Smiling Phases Lyrics - Blood, Sweat & Tears - Blood Sweat & Tears

Do yourself a favor 

Wake up to your mind 

Life is what you make it 

You see, but still you're blind 

Get yourself together 

Give before you take 

You'll find out the hard way 

Soon you're gonna break 

Hey hey hey 

Smiling phases 

Showing traces 

Even if they bust you 

Keep on smiling through and through 

And you'll be amazed at the gaze 

On their faces as they sentence you 

You don't need a lawyer 

When you're in a fix 

Someone gets to pay up 

Your friends are full of tricks 

But happiness is something 

That you just can't buy 

Own up to the truth girl 

Your love has gone on by 

Smiling Phases bring you flowers 

You can line 'em up 

And you can watch 'em grow for hours 

And you'll be amazed at the way that they stare 

As they walk by your door 

Do yourself a favor 

Wake up to your mind 

Life is what you make it 

You see, but still you're blind 

Get yourself together 

Give before you take 

You'll find out the hard way
