Do yourself a favor  Wake up to your mind  Life is what you make it  You see but still your blind  Get yourself together, give before you take  You'll find out the hard way  Soon you're going to break    Smiling Phases, going places  Even when they bust you  Keep on smiling through and through  And you'll be amazed at the gaze on their faces  As they sentence you    You don't need a lawyer  When you're in a fix  Someone gets the pay off  You're friends are full of tricks  How could you love something  That you just can't buy?  Own up to the truth girl  Your mother's gone on by    Your companion, brings you flowers  You just hang him up  And keep him waiting there for hours  And you should just see the look on his face   As you slide down the rail
