i can't stop smiling and i dont know why I want to anyway
so many times before i could hardly even force one to my face
i'll trade you a smile for a shake
i know thats something you just can't fake
it could mean nothing
it could mean nothing, it could mean everything
when you started playing rough
fit you like a boxing glove
can't stop smiling long enough to say
i can't stop smiling long enough to pretend to sympathize
only months ago you would never even take the time to write
(I can't figure this line out for the life of me. Help Craig!)
i'm not listening anyway
so tell me something
so tell me something, I can do anything
show me that i'm wrong enough
need to know that kind of stuff
can't stop smiling long enough today(Head)
Say it ain't so Jo, please, say it ain't so
That's not what I wanna hear Jo
And I got a right to know
Say it ain't so Jo, please, say it ain't so
I'm sure they're telling us lies Jo
Please tell us it ain't so
They told us that our hero has played his trump card
He doesn't know how to go on
We're clinging to his charm and determined smile
The good old days have gone
The image and the empire may be falling apart
The money has gotten scarce
One man's word held the country together
But the truth is getting fierce
Say it ain't so Jo, please, say it ain't so
We pinned our hopes on you Jo
And they're ruining our show
Ooh baby don't you think
We're gonna get burned
Ooh baby don't you think
We're gonna get burned
We're gonna get turned
We're gonna get burned
Yes we're gonna get turned
We're gonna get burned
We're gonna get turned
Yes, we're gonna get burned
We're gonna get burned
We're gonna get burned
Yes we're gonna get turned
We're gonna get burned
Say it ain't so Jo, please, say it ain't so
That's not what I wanna hear Jo
And I got a right to know
Say it ain't so Jo, please, say it ain't so
I'm sure they're telling us lies Jo
Please tell us it ain't so
Say it ain't so Jo, please, say it ain't so
That's not what I wanna hear Jo
And I got a right to know
Say it ain't so Jo, please, say it ain't so
I'm sure they're telling us lies Jo
Please tell us it ain't so
Say it ain't so
