I am not gonna make it I can see the crowd around me Is getting bigger, & as it is I'm trying to figure out Why I feel so isolated I have my friends But don't have much time for them I have my house A tiny pocket in my luggage I have my boyfriend But he's also so tired of listening to me Every single day Seems like a mountain to climb Every single word It takes all my strength to get it out I'm tired of talking about me But in fact, it's the only thing I get a grip on I feel like I'm not gonna make it I really feel like I'm not gonna make it But it might be the best thing That ever happened to me. so now
Hey little girl keep on smiling: Cause they don't want to hear you complaining You're a lucky girl Your life's so exciting So I'll keep on making bad jokes 'Cause you think I'm strong & it might be the way you like it Oh how I need you to like me...
I have tried as hard as I can I have tried to go through 9 to 5 was like a train Between work and bars Never found out what I was travelling for Now I have my car But I ain't got no safe place to go I still hold my drink But I'm not as thirsty as before I have my voice But I heard lately that people Don't want to hear sad songs Every single place It's all the same to me Every single face I know it wine replaced By another smiley one Who will also be left soon Somewhere behind I feel like I'm not gonna make it I really feel like I'm not gonna make it But it might be the best thing That ever happened to me, so now
Hey little girl keep on smiling 'Cause they dont want to hear you complaining You're a lucky girl Your life's so exciting So I'll keep on making bad jokes 'Cause you think I'm strong & it might be the way you like it Oh how I need you to like me.
Please now just don't count on me I can't handle it anymore & don't ask me why If you don't want me to lie But dont be alarmed Don't you see that I'm just down Just dont worry soon be back on the tracks
Smilin'. 'Cause I'll get tired of complaining I'm a lucky girl & I'm doing exactly what I wanted So I'll keep on making bad jokes 'Cause I need to be strong It might be my only chance to get out of it & now I really need to make it ! & now I really need to make it!!
