Painted Smile — текст песни (Moody Blues)

(Ray Thomas)
I can sing
I can dance
Just give me a chance
To do my turn for you
There`s a chance I`ll slip
But with stiff upper lip
I`ll s sing a song for you
Laughter is free
But it`s hard to be a jester
All the time
And no one`s believing
I`m the same when I`m bleeding
And I hurt all the time deep inside
I`ve shed a tear for the lying
While everyday trying to
Paint this smile for you
Backflips, cartwheelings,
Somersault feelings
What is there left to do
Laughter is free
But it`s hard for me,
A jester all the time
No one`s believing
I`m the same when I`m bleeding
and I hurt all the time deep inside
Roll up, roll up
Enjoy the show
Pick me up, wind me up, put me down
You`ll see me go
And this painted smile
May miss for a while
Then come back and steal your show
I sing, I dance
Give me a chance to do my turn for you
With backflips, cartwheelings,
Somersault feelings
What`s there left to do
Laughter is free
But it`s so hard to be a jester
All the time
No one`s believing
I`m the same when I`m bleeding
And I hurt all the time deep inside
Laughter is free
But it`s hard to be a jester
All the time
No one`s believing
I`m the same when I`m bleedinng
And I hurt all the time deep inside
