I pick the dirt
From under my nails
I pick the scab under my hair
Somebody smirks from the window, there

THE SUN IS SMILING ON ME
THE WORLD IS SMILING ON ME
ON A DAY AS DRY AS A HOLLOWED OUT TREE
AND SADNESS PROLIFERATES IN ME

I POKED A HOLE
IN A BRIGHT SUMMER DAY
I POKED A HOLE IN A FESTERING TRASH BAG
I CURSED THE LOVE I'LL NEVER GET BACK

THE SKY IS SMILING ON ME
AND GOD IS SMILING ON ME
ON A DAY AS DARK AS THE CHASM OF THE SEA
AND SADNESS PROLIFERATES IN ME

The sun is smiling on me
The sun is smiling on me
The world is smiling on me
The world is smiling on me
The sky is smiling on me
The sky is smiling on me
And god is smiling on me
And god is smiling on me
The world is smiling on me
