So you're scared to lose your job
And you're scared to lose your home
And you're worried for your future

Smile! Smile! Smile!
What's wrong with you?
Smile! Smile! Smile!

And maybe I can love you
So you're eating cat and dog food
And you're sleeping in your car

And you're in a lot of pain
And you can't afford the treatment
Just put on a happy face
So you say you're feeling down
And you say you’re feeling blue
I don't like it when you frown
Cuz you're ruining the mood
