Blood, Sweat & Tears - Smiling Phases

(Steve Winwood, James Capaldi, Chris Wood) (These lyrics are as BS&T performed the song, original lyrics differ slightly) Do yourself a favor, Wake up to your mind Life is what you make it You see, but still you're blind Get yourself together, Give before you take You'll find out the hard way, Soon you're gonna break Hey hey hey Smiling phases Showing traces Even if they bust you Keep on smiling through and through And you'll be amazed at the gaze On their faces as they sentence you You don't need a lawyer When you're in a fix Someone gets to pay up Your friends are full of tricks But happiness is something That you just can't buy Own up to the truth girl, Your love has gone on by Smiling Phases bring you flowers You can line 'em up And you can watch 'em grow for hours And you'll be amazed at the way that they stare as they walk by your door Do yourself a favor, Wake up to your mind Life is what you make it You see, but still you're blind Get yourself together, Give before you take You'll find out the hard way, Soon you're gonna break Hey hey hey Smiling phases Going Places Even if they bust you Keep on smiling through and through And you'll be amazed at the gaze On their faces as they sentenceyou!!
