Politician Smile

from EP by Grip-Like Vice

lyrics

Get back, Get back,
I won’t get back until you shut up your mouth,
Get down, with the crowd,
You’re always changing like a god damn jack in the box,

You’re losing your dreams,
They fell down the seams,
Of books you swore you’d never read,
Ya lost who you are,
The fragile star,
The star of the show,

Well Hey hey hey, what are you gonna do?
When you’re lost in the centre fold,
Hey hey hey, what are you gonna do?
When no one listens to a thing you say,

Get back, just get back,
I won’t get back until you buck up your ideas,
Get down, with the crowd,
Slick back your hair and put on your politician smile,

You’re losing your dreams,
They fell down the seems,
Of books you swore you’d never read,
Ya lost who you are,
The fragile star,
The star of the show,

Well Hey hey hey, what are you gonna do?
When you’re lost in the centre fold,
Hey hey hey, what are you gonna do?
When no one listens to a thing you say,

Well Hey hey hey, what are you gonna do?
When you’re lost in the centre fold,
Hey hey hey, what are you gonna do?
When no one listens to a thing you say,

Everybody’s looking for answers,
Everybody’s popping the question,
Who are you?
Where did everybody’s best friend go?
I look into your eyes and I’ll never know,
Who you are,
Who you are,

Hey hey hey, what are you gonna do?
When you’re lost, you’re lost,
Hey hey hey, what are you gonna do?
Yeah,

Hey hey hey, what are you gonna do?
Hey hey hey, what are you gonna do?
What are you gonna do?
What are you gonna do?
