lyrics

Dear Uncle here’s a sorry spiel too thin for Ma and Pa
You see I jitter on the tube ashamed at how much I perspire
And the thought of acting chummy makes my mouth become all dry
So I call on your instruction
You know you’ve always been such a shrewd guide
Thirsty eyes open wide
That was the approach and how you did so disappoint
With a tower of Hallmark sick
Some sentimental bile, you said
You can smile when you don’t want to smile
Or you can drink your life watch the time go by
Or you can grin when there ain’t nothing to be grinning about
Don’t cry out loud ‘cause no one loves you when you’re down and out

Keep on smiling
Keep on smiling

Oh, the prudent rock of our folk your brain has sprung a leak and if you open your mouth, out it would seep
In a rank, soppy stream

It’s a sting being let down
To be made a fool to feel a clown
To be slapped about by life or disappointed by an ass I’ve earned an untamed disposition
And an ever tightening grasp
Now I’m riling Now I’m riling
Care to chime in?
So it goes and so it should
And so you think of what could
Have been if circumstance were different
Or if life had been more kind
Or how you would have done things different if you’d only had the time

Now I’m riling
Keep on smiling
