Smiling Faces Sometimes - Joan Osborne

Smiling faces sometimes

Pretend to be your friend

Smiling faces show no traces

Of the evil that lurks within

The truth is in the eyes

'Cause the eyes don’t lie, Amen

Remember, a smile is just a frown turned upside down

My friend, so hear me when I’m saying

Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes

They don’t tell the truth

Smiling faces, smiling faces

Tell lies and I got proof

Beware, beware of the handshake that hides the snake

Beware, beware of the pat on the back

It just might hold you back

Jealousy, jealousy, misery, misery

Envy, envy, I tell you, you can’t see behind

Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes

They don’t tell the truth

Smiling faces, smiling faces

Tell lies and I got proof

Your enemy won’t do you no harm

'Cause you’ll know where he’s coming from

Don’t let the handshake and the smile fool ya

Take my advice I’m only try' to school ya

Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes

They don’t tell the truth

Smiling faces, smiling faces

Tell lies and I got proof

Lies, lies, lies, lies, lies, lies

Don’t be pulled in by the charm

A million dollar smile

Can be quiet constantly
