Lyrics
Behind The Smile
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Behind the smile is great and nice
Beware of what is in his eyes.
Looks like fun but he's after you
It's not so funny what that smile can do
Behind the smile there lies a face
Filled with cunning but is full of grace.
Comes on friendly but is deadly too
Beware for he'll take care of you
An innocent soul well it hurts
I'm so nieve, that's all you ever see
Behind the smile you cannot see
Lies another fool in misery
Don't be fooled by that friendly grin
The jaws of death are going to draw you in
Call you in
