Blood, Sweat & Tears - Smiling Phases Lyrics

Do yourself a favor, wake up to your mind
Life is what you make it, you see but still you're blind
Get yourself together, give before you take
You'll find out the hard way, soon you're gonna break
Hey, hey, hey

Smiling phases, going places and if they bust you
You just keep on smiling through and through

And you'll be amazed at the gaze
On their faces as they sentence you

You don't need a lawyer when you're in a fix
Someone got to pay up, your friends are full of tricks
But true love is something that you just can't buy
Own up to the truth girl, your love has gone on by
Hey, hey, hey

Smiling phases bring you flowers, you can line 'em up
And you can watch them grow for hours

And you'll be amazed at the way that they stare
As they walk by your door

Do yourself a favor, wake up to your mind
Life is what you make it, you see but still you're blind
Get yourself together, give before you take
You'll find out the hard way, soon you're gonna break
Hey, hey, hey

Smiling phases, going places and if they bust you
You just keep on smiling through and through

And you'll be amazed at the gaze
On their faces as they sentence you
