Smiling Phases lyrics
(Steve Winwood, James Capaldi, Chris Wood)
(These lyrics are as BS&T performed the song, original lyrics differ slightly)

Do yourself a favor,
Wake up to your mind
Life is what you make it
You see, but still you re blind

Get yourself together,
Give before you take
You ll find out the hard way,
Soon you re gonna break
Hey hey hey

Smiling phases
Showing traces
Even if 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 to pay up
Your friends are full of tricks
But happiness is something
That you just can t buy
Own up to the truth girl,
Your love has gone on by

Smiling Phases bring you flowers
You can line em up
And you can watch em grow for hours
And you ll be amazed at the way that they stare
as they walk by your door.


Do yourself a favor,
Wake up to your mind
Life is what you make it
You see, but still you re blind

Get yourself together,
Give before you take
You ll find out the hard way,
Soon you re gonna break
Hey hey hey

Smiling phases
Going Places
Even if they bust you
Keep on smiling through and through
And you ll be amazed at the gaze
On their faces as they sentence...you!!
