I love making you believe What you get is what you see
But I'm so fake happy I feel so fake happy And I bet everybody here
Is just as insincere We're all so fake happy And I know fake happy
So I've been doing a good job of makin' 'em think
I'm quite alright, 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
If I smile with my teeth Bet you believe me
If I smile with my teeth I think I 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
And if I go out tonight, dress up my fears
You think I look alright with these mascara tears?
See I'm gonna draw up my lipstick wider than my mouth
And if the lights are low they'll never see me frown
( * )
I know I said that I was doing good and that I'm happy now
I should've known when things were going good that's when I'd get knocked down
( * )
(Oh please) (Oh please) Oh please, I bet everybody here is fake happy too
