Lyrics
Buy My Face a Smile
I know a guy who took a lifelong vow
but the one he ended up with turned out to be foul
But he didn't get to know her didn't take the time
and now that vow is empty and his light barely shines
I know the girl who smoked this guy's world
she drew him up close to her lips 'psych' crushed him out
But he'll take on the world one day you will see
and he'll cast all his pain and leave behind misery
So look under the carpet
that's where she swept the pride and joy in everything I love
(Chorus)
So won't you buy my face a smile buy my face a smile
I've been lonely for a while so buy my face a smile
Still on the ground I'll be with your hound
we'll sit together in your doghouse not make a sound
We'll take on the world one day you will see
and we'll cast all our pain and leave behind misery
(Chorus)
So won't you buy my face a smile buy my face a smile
I've been lonely for a while so buy my face a smile
