Smile More - Deap Vally

Everybody’s trying to tell me what to do

Everybody’s trying to tell me what to do

It makes me want to break some shit and sniff some glue

Everybody’s trying to tell me what to do

Stranger in the bar tells me to smile more

I look at him and I ask, «What for?

I am happily unhappy, man

And no, I don’t wanna shake your hand»

I don’t want to be a reflection

I’m so bored with this rejection

I don’t want to be a reflection

I don’t need your direction

And I am not ashamed of my mental state

And I am not ashamed of my body weight

And I am not ashamed of my rage

And I am not ashamed of my age

And I am not ashamed of my sex life

Although I wish it were better

I am not ashamed I am no one’s wife

Although the idea does sound kind of nice

I don’t want to be a reflection

I’m so bored with this rejection

I don’t want to be a reflection

I don’t need your direction

All this rejection is bad for my complexion

Come on now, let’s take this to the next section

People think they know what kind of girl I am

They take one look, they think they understand

And they are always surprised when they meet me

Apparently I’m terribly misleading

And yes, I am a feminist

But that isn’t why I started doing this

And sometimes I am full of bitterness

But I am trying to work through this

I don’t want to be a reflection

I’m so bored with this rejection

I don’t want to be a reflection

I don’t need your direction

I don’t want to be a reflection

I’m so bored with this rejection

I don’t want to be a reflection

I don’t need your d-d-d-discorrection
