If, as, and when you've got a long face
Rearrange it
Don't be contented with the wrong face
There's a way to change it

Does the day look painful? The future glum?
Does the sky look rainful?
Hey there, say there, are you in a vacu-um?
All is stuff and nonsense you can overcome
A long face gets you nowhere
You'll lose that month of May
Like Peter Pan, the sweeter pan wins the day

Go lose that long face, that long face
Go long, and get that long face lost
The blues black out when they can see
A smile that says, "Move on, no vacancy!"
This panacea idea
I'm handing you without any cost
There isn't any tax on it, so just relax on it
If you want trouble double-crossed
Don't give into a frown, turn that frown upside-down
And get yourself that long face lost

Go lose that long face, that long face
Go long, and get that long face lost
Let Gloomy Gus be critical
But we'll be polyanalytical
Take my suggestion, don't question
That smile that gets you out of a frost
You don't need a psychologist or numerologist
If you want trouble double-crossed
With a face full of fun, take your place in the sun
And get yourself that long face
Get yourself that long face
Go, go, go, and get your long face lost
