[Verse 1]
I been doing a good job of makin' 'em think
I'm quite alright
Better hope I don't blink
You see, it's easy when I'm stomping on a beat
But no one sees me when I crawl back underneath

[Pre-Chorus]
Hey, if I smile with my teeth
Bet you believe me
If I smile with my teeth
I think I believe me

[Chorus]
Oh please, don't ask me how I've been
Don't make me play pretend
Oh no, oh what's the use?
Oh please, I bet everybody here is fake happy too

[Verse 2]
And if I go out tonight, dress up my fears
You think I look alright with these mascara tears?
See, I'm gonna draw up my lipstick wider than my mouth
And if the lights are low they'll never see me frown

[Pre-Chorus]
Hey, if I smile with my teeth
Bet you believe me
If I smile with my teeth
I think I believe me

[Chorus]
Oh please, don't ask me how I've been
Don't make me play pretend
Oh no, oh oh, what's the use?
Oh please, I bet everybody here is fake happy too

[Bridge]
I know I said that I was doing good and that I'm happy now
Ooh ooh
I shoulda known that when things were going good that's when I'd get knocked down

[Chorus]
Oh please, just don't ask me how I've been
Don't make me play pretend
Oh no, oh no
Oh, what's the use?
Oh please, I bet everybody here is fake happy too
Oh please, I bet everybody here is fake happy too

[Outro]
Oh please
Oh please
Oh please, I bet everybody here is fake happy too
