With A Straight Face Lyrics - Mac Mcanally

They dressed her up in lace and curls 

All the things she wasn’t 

Taught her life was not much more 

Than looking for a husband 

With a straight face 

With a straight face 

Friends are playing Barbie dolls 

She doesn’t feel so normal 

Picture from the senior prom 

The gown was big and formal 

With a straight face 

With a straight face 

The family name, you ought to be ashamed 

Your father yelled, your mother prayed 

They mean well, they’re tryin’ to fix your soul 

Or they’re trying to get you laid 

Or they just roll their eyes 

Like you’re not something God made 

With a straight face 

The neighbors called him “mamma’s boy” 

He wants to be a dancer 

Questions they don’t want to ask 

He’s afraid to answer 

With a straight face 

With a straight face 

His friends are playing Superman 

He pretends he’s normal 

Picture from the senior prom 

The smile was big and formal 

With a straight face 

With a straight face 

The family name, you ought to be ashamed 

Your father yelled, your mother prayed 

They mean well, they’re tryin’ to fix your soul 

Or they’re trying to get you laid 

Or they just roll their eyes 

Like you’re not something God made 

With a straight face
