"People Should Smile More"

People should smile more
I'm not saying there's nothing to cry for
And you've got
Everything laid out for you
Just close your eyes, take a deep breath, and start another war
Keep buying, keep moving
This city, is sitting
Next to me
We'll lay it out
It's gonna come, one thing is certain

I can't change the world
'Cause trying to make a difference
Makes it worse
It's just an observation
I can't ignore
That people should smile more

And people should smile more
But the lights are so bright that they blind you
Just one more
Meaningless scientific breakthrough
The more we know, the less we care, what's damaged on the way
Keep moving, keep buying
This city, is sitting
Next to me
We'll lay it out
It's gonna come, one thing is certain

I can't change the world
'Cause trying to make a difference
Makes it worse
It's just an observation
I can't ignore
That people could smile more
People should smile more

Ba do dah
Do da dee do
Do do de dee do
(Do bah)
Ba do dah
Do da dee do
Do do de dee do
(Do bah)
Do dah
Do da dee do
Do do de dee dee dee do
Do dah
Do da dee do
Ba do doo de doo de doo

I can't change the world
'Cause trying to make a difference
Makes it worse
It's just an observation
I can't ignore
That people could smile more
People should smile more

I can't change the world
'Cause trying to make a difference
Makes it worse
It's just an observation
I can't ignore
That people could smile more
People should smile more
