The old soul classic
Smiling faces got it right

“Smiling faces sometimes
Pretend to be your friend
Smiling faces show no traces
Of the evil that lurks within (can you dig it?)

Smiling faces, smiling faces, sometimes
They don't tell the truth
Smiling faces, smiling faces tell lies and I got proof

Oh, oh, yeah
Let me tell you

The truth is in the eyes 'cause the eyes don't lie, amen
Remember, a smile is just a frown turned upside down my friend
So, hear me when I'm saying

Smiling faces, smiling faces, sometimes, yeah
They don't tell the truth

Smiling faces, smiling faces tell lies and I got proof
(Beware) beware of the handshake
That hides the snake (can you dig it, can you dig it?)

I'm a-tellin' you beware of the pat on the back
It just might hold you back

Jealousy, (jealousy) misery (misery) envy (envy)
I…”

Boy did the singer get it right
In this world of fake things
Where the market rules us all

The art of the fake smile
Has been perfected

They say that many people
Have mastered the art of the fake smile

Where you smile
and pretend to like someone

your victim
does not suspect

that the smile
is because you are thinking
of stabbing them in the back

oh yes in a world of fake people
beware, beware of smiling faces
