I love making you believe
What you get is what you see
But I'm so fake happy
I feel so fake happy
And I bet everybody here
Is just as insincere
We're all so fake happy
And I know fake happy

I been doing a good job
Of makin' 'em think
I'm quite alright
But I hope I don't blink
You see its easy
When I'm stomping on a beat
But no one sees me
When I crawl back underneath

If I smile with my teeth
Bet you believe me
If I smile with my teeth
I think I believe me

Oh please, don't ask me how I've been
Don't make me play pretend
Oh no, oh what's the use
Oh please, I bet everybody here
Is fake happy too

And if I go out tonight
Dress up my fears
You think I'll look alright
With these mascara tears?
See I'm gonna draw my lipstick
Wider than my mouth
And if the lights are low
They'll never see me frown

If I smile with my teeth
Bet you believe me
If I smile with my teeth
I think I believe me

Oh please, don't ask me how I've been
Don't make me play pretend
Oh no, oh oh what's the use?
Oh please, I bet everybody here
Is fake happy too

I know I said that I was doing good
And that I'm happy now
Ooh ooh
I should've known
That when things are going good
That's when I get knocked down

Oh please, just don't ask me how I've been
Don't make me play pretend
Oh no, oh no
Oh what's the use?
Oh please, I bet everybody here
Is fake happy too
Oh please, I bet everybody here
Is fake happy too
