People say I'm the life of the party   'Cause I tell a joke or two   Although I might be laughing loud and hearty   Deep inside I'm blue      So take a good look at my face   You'll see my smile looks out of place   If you look closer, it's easy to trace   The tracks of my tears      I need you, need you   Need you, need you      Since you left me if you see me with another girl   Seeming like I'm having fun   Although she may be cute   She's just a substitute   Because you're the permanent one      So take a good look at my face   You'll see my smile looks out of place   Look closer, it's easy to trace   The tracks of my tears      I need you, need you   Need you, need you      Outside I'm masquerading   Inside my hope is fading   Just a clown, oh, yeah   Since you put me down   My smile is my make up I wear   Since my break up with you      So take a good look at my face   Smile looks out of place   Closer, it's easy to trace   The tracks of my tears      So take a good look at my face   You'll see my smile looks out of place   If you look closer, it's easy to trace   Tracks of my tears
