SMILE AWHILE

(SUNG BY PURPLE BURT)

MY BROTHER BURPS,

I'M INVISIBLE AND MY GIRLFRIEND'S AWAY

MY TURTLE'S SLOW,

I'M STILL COLORBLIND AND I EAT DIRT ALL DAY

EVEN THOUGH I AM SAD, I KNOW HOW TO BE GLAD

I TAKE MY FROWN AND TURN IT AROUND 

WITH A BRAND NEW GAME THAT I PLAY

SMILE AWHILE, AND LAUGH TOO

SMILE AWHILE, YOU HAVE TO

THINK OF SOMETHING FUNNY THEN

TELL THE FUNNY THING TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS

THEY WILL PASS THE FUNNY THING AROUND

SOON THE ONLY THING YOU'LL HEAR

IS A HAPPY SOUND

SMILE AWHILE

IT'S AN EASY THING TO DO!

YOU CAN'T BE SAD WITH A SILLY GRIN

AND A GLEAM IN YOUR EYES

SO JUMP AROUND, BE A CLOWN 

AND YOU'LL ONLY SEE SUNNY SKIES

YOU WILL ALWAYS HAVE FUN

WITH CHUCKLING BY THE TON

AS LONG AS YOU REMEMBER TO 

KEEP YOUR MIND ON THE HAPPINESS PRIZE

SMILE AWHILE, AND GIGGLE

SMILE AWHILE, BE TICKLED

SMILE AWHILE, AND LAUGH TOO

SMILE AWHILE, YOU HAVE TO

THINK OF SOMETHING FUNNY THEN

TELL THE FUNNY THING TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS

THEY WILL PASS THE FUNNY THING AROUND

SOON THE ONLY THING YOU'LL HEAR

IS A HAPPY SOUND

SMILE AWHILE

IT'S THE ONLY THING TO DO!
