I learned politeness on my mother's knee
I learned by uprightness my number of friends
Should increase
When I think about the things I've done
I laugh out loud to noone
Yeah, to noone
'Coz it's so hard to meet the eyes that I see
When I try to open up my heart
There's something inside me'n'I know it's good
But understanding, it's misunderstood
At the end of a smile, there's a laugh'n'a 1/2
But I became honest Mr. Mistaken
In spite of the curves my smile was makin'
Bumpers and kickers in one big stream
I grew up in a life size pinball machine!
Yeah! They're mean!
'Coz it's so hard to meet the eyes that I see
When I try to open up my heart
There's something inside me'n'I know it's good
But understanding, it's misunderstood
At the end of a smile, there's a laugh'n'a 1/2
On my behalf
There's something inside me and I know it's good
But understanding, it's misunderstood
At the end of a smile, there's a laugh'n'a 1/2
I tried to fill some silence
'Coz the silence feels so long
I knew the ice was gettin' thinner
But I kept skating on!
My mother threw me into this world as a winner
But by the light of the yellow beer
They tell the jokes I'll never get to hear!
On my behalf
There's something inside me and I know it's good
But understanding, it's misunderstood
At the end of a smile, there's a laugh'n'a 1/2
On my behalf
There's something inside me and I know it's good
But understanding, it's misunderstood
At the end of a smile, there's a laugh'n'a 1/2
At the end of a smile, there's a laugh'n'a 1/2
At the end of a smile, there's a laugh'n'a 1/2
At the end of a smile, there's a laugh'n'a 1/2
At the end of a smile, there's a laugh'n'a 1/2
