(Winwood/Capaldi/Wood)
|
|
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 going to break
|
|
Smiling Phases, going places
|
Even when 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 the pay off
|
You're friends are full of tricks
|
How could you love something
|
That you just can't buy?
|
Own up to the truth girl
|
|
Your mother's gone on by
|
Your companion, brings you flowers
|
You just hang him up
|
And keep him waiting there for hours
|
And you should just see the look on his face
|
As you slide down the rail
