You Can Only Smile

You're born

And then they slap you

Till you cry

They never say

You live to die

Or that life

Will pass you by

So you'd better learn to smile

You can only smile

Or you'll never survive

As happiness comes from inside

So you just smile

It's not about the things

You need to have

Or those that might have done you bad

It's about doing right all the while

So do it with a smile

You can only smile

Or you'll never survive

Because happiness comes from inside

So you just smile

So here we are

To see another day

So be careful what you say

Don't hurt those who betray

Kill them with kindness is my way

You can only smile

Or you'll never survive

As happiness comes from inside

So you just smile

Life's a game

Where you can only lose

They don't teach you that at school

When you're winning

They change the bloody rules

So you'd better fucking smile

You can only smile

Or you'll never survive

As happiness comes from inside

So you just smile
