Smiling with No Teeth
Everybody wants the summer without holding the rain,
Everybody wants feeling without touching the pain,
Everybody wants the sweetness without tasting the bland,
Everybody wants the help but they aint lending a hand,
Yes indeed
Keep the Grammy for you, we need an Oscar,
The greatest actors the world has ever seen,
Slathering honey on our demons for the palate of the apathetic,
Isn't that pathetic?
Our temples are at capacity but we continue to cram in body after body,
Soul after soul,
Opinion after opinion,
Till we don't care what's really ours
Everybody wants the summer without holding the rain,
Everybody wants feeling without touching the pain,
Everybody wants the sweetness without tasting the bland,
Everybody wants the help but they aint lending a hand,
Yes indeed
I would never leave you lone baby,
Not to say I wouldn't if I could,
I've read the story of the two black dogs,
Society's stray and the stray's hound,
Caressing and stabbing each other with a technician's touch,
Too many cries have cried with no tears,
Too many nets cast into fishless lakes,
Too many smiles cracked with no teeth
Everybody wants the summer without holding the rain,
Everybody wants feeling without touching the pain,
Everybody wants the sweetness without tasting the bland,
Everybody wants the help but they aint lending a hand,
Yes indeed
(Repeat)
Smiling with no teeth,
Smiling with no teeth,
Smiling with no teeth
