Curl the corners of your mouth high
There's no need to stretch it very wide
Just scrunch your nose and crease your eyes,
That's all it really takes to hide
No one wants to see the wounds inside
Put it on in the wild
Put it on before you speak
Put it on even if it's small
Put it on,
you must be professional
Whether you know them
or whether you don't
Curl it up and swallow the bile
All we want to see,
is the smile
Put it on even if you're sore
Put it on before you close the door
Put it on even when you cry
Put it on, this is how you hide
Just scrunch your nose and crease your eyes
And this is how you keep it all inside.
