Have you seen that moon-faced kid?

that burned out halo hangs right above his head

it's so hard not to be crushed

when you're praying for too much

and the stars refuse to shine for you

they do it just to spite

well they know you're trying to hard


hoping for a little more than just another kiss goodnight

your face is full and paved with lines

your hair's receding fast and so is your mind

and that lazy eye won't budg

cuz you're praying way too much

and don't take that pill 

your head will swell

you'll only be king once

just once,

you'll only be king


smile, please smile

I just want you happy

smile, please smile

I just want you happy


and the stars refuse to shine for you

they do it just to spite

well they know you're trying to hard


smile, please smile

I just want you happy

smile, please smile

I just want you happy

I just want you happy

I just want you happy
