Put a smile in your mind if you feel inclined
Just for a moment
Put a smile in your mind you can realign
Only for a moment
Put a smile in your mind you may feel alive
Just for a moment
Put a smile in your mind
I know you need your smile (put it in your mind)
I know your friends need your smile (put it in your mind)
I know that the world needs your smile / So let me state the case
That if you put one in your mind it may just end up rocking your face
Put a smile in your mind if you feel inclined
Just for a moment
Put a smile in your mind you can realign
Only for a moment
Put a smile in your mind you may feel alive
Just for a moment
Put a smile in your mind
Cause you can’t wear that lonely face for long
Undo all those tightened muscles that don’t speak the truth
Cause we’re alive and it’s a blessing
We all woke up today got dressed and
Took a breath, digested,
Do you need anymore proof?
Put it in your mind, just for a moment
Put it in your mind, only for a moment
I know it may sound like a funked up voodoo abstraction
I know it may sound like new age snake oil prank
But I know that if just for one second you can see it right there in your mind
Then you can remove that uncomfortable disguise and liberate those beautiful eyes
I know the world is troubled please don’t misconstrue my words
Cause we can still be full of gratitude
We all are working for this justice
It takes love and time to trust this
Process will adjust this
World as it groans anew
Put a smile in your mind if you feel inclined
Just for a moment
Put a smile in your mind you can realign
Only for a moment
Put a smile in your mind you may feel alive
Just for a moment
Put a smile in your mind, in your mind
If only for a moment
