Don't step on my smile, don't step on my smile ...

Could be the only thing between me and destitution,
The only thing that links me with my mind;
And when everything else falls due for restitution
At least they'll have to leave my smile behind.

Don't step on my smile, don't step on my smile ...

When the newscaster casts his news
It's enough to give an optimist a dose of the blues;
If you really took in everything he said
You'd just go mad, trying to ease your head.

Don't step on my smile, don't step on my smile ...
