[Verse 1]
I see that smile, I see that smile
I see that smile on your face
We hear you cry, we hear you wail
We see that smile on your face

[Verse 2]
We see you laugh, we see you dance
We take that all away every day
We see you cry, we turn your head
Then we slap your face

[Chorus 1]
Bow down, bow down
Bow down with your life
Head down, head down
Head down, hide that smile
Head high, head high
Head high, you've got to smile
Head high, head high
Head high, you've got to smile

[Verse 3]
We see you try, we see you fail
Some things will never change
We hear you cry, we hear you wail
We steal that smile on your face
[Chorus 2]
Bow down, bow down
Bow down with your life
Head down, head down
Head down, hide that smile
Head high, head high
Head high, you've got to smile
Head high, head high
Head high, a song you like
