Lyrics and translation
Original
So I've been doing a good job of making them think
I'm quite all right.
You better hope I don't blink.
You see it's easy when I'm stomping on a beat, but no one sees me when I crawl back underneath.
Hey, if I smile with my teeth, bet you'd believe me.
If I smile with my teeth, think I'd believe me. Oh please, don't ask me how I've been.
Don't make me play pretend. Oh no.
Oh, what's the use? Oh please.
I bet everybody here is fake happy too
If I go out tonight and dress up my fears, you think I look alright with these mascara tears?
See I'm gonna draw my lipstick wider than my mouth and if the lights are low, they'll never see me frown.
Hey, if I smile with my teeth, bet you'd believe me.
If I smile with my teeth, think I'd believe me. Oh please, don't ask me how I've been.
Don't make me play pretend. Oh no. Oh, oh what's the use? Oh please.
I bet everybody here is fake happy too
I know I said that I was doing good and that I'm happy now.
Ooh.
I shoulda known when things were going good that's when I'd get knocked down.
Ah, ba-da, ba-da, ba-ba.
Ba-da, ba-da, ba-ba. Ba-da, ba-da, ba-ba. Ba-da, ba-da, ba-ba. Ba-da, ba-da, ba-ba.
Ba-da, ba-da, ba-ba. Ba-da, ba-da, ba-ba. Ba-da, ba-da, ba-ba. Oh please, just don't ask me how
I've been. Don't make me play pretend. Oh no.
Oh no. Oh, what's the use? Oh please. I bet everybody here is fake happy too
Ba-da, ba-da, ba-ba. Ba-da, ba-da, ba-ba. Ba-da, ba-da, ba-ba.
Ba-da, ba-da, ba-ba.
Oh please, I bet everybody here is fake happy too. Ba-da, ba-da, ba-ba.
Ba-da, ba-da, ba-ba.
