Smile (Don't You Hear That)

Don't you hear that
Don't you hear that

Why won't you smile
Joy is creeping at your window
Smile gimme a smile
Smile gimme a smile
Why won't you smile
Laughter's coming through your door
Smile gimme a smile

Don't you hear that knock kno knock knocking
Knocking at your door
Open up and find what your living for
Life will knock you down and have you on the floor
Like this girl I heard about and they said she was a
Beauty queen but she didn't know it
Her face paint a picture but her eyes didn't show it
Someone take a seed and thing dem coulda grow it
Be she root it up and far away she throw yow
Root up those seeds of hate and anger
Or your tree will wither and plunder
Root up those seeds of hate and anger
They will make you go under

Just smile
Joy is creeping at your window
Smile gimme a smile
Smile gimme a smile
Why won't you smile
Laughter's coming through your door
Smile gimme a smile

Some people have it ruff ru ruff ruffer
Ruffer than ruff
The money low and the food is not enough
Times a get sticky and the duty tuff
Like this youth I heard about and they said he was a

Good youth but no support system
They say he'll never make it so his minds drifting
Switching glitching inah fights him hands fisting
Gripping on things that might send him guh a prison yow
Root up those seeds of hate and anger
Or your tree will wither and plunder
Root up those seeds of hate and anger
They will make you go under

Just smile
Joy is creeping at your window
Smile gimme a smile
Smile gimme a smile
Why won't you smile
Laughter's coming through your door
Smile gimme a smile

Some people just a worry worry
They don't what is next
Dem just get a I miss you text from them ex
The one who treat them bad and never had the right flex
Now them sit up every night a thing a bout the good

Times they had when they were happy
Before the bun gwan and life get crappy
Give him a jacket so he wasn't pappy
Jah know him shoulda wrap it
But don't vex
Root up those seeds of hate and anger
Or your tree will wither and plunder
Root up those seeds of hate and anger
They will make you go under

Just smile
Joy is creeping at your window
Smile gimme a smile
Smile gimme a smile
Why won't you smile
Laughter's coming through your door
Smile gimme a smile

Why don't you smile
Joy is creeping at your window
Smile gimme a smile
Smile gimme a smile
Why won't you smile
Laughter's coming through your door
Smile gimme a smile

Why won't you smile
Why won't you smile
Why won't you smile
Why won't you smile
Why won't you smile
