It's a smiley face society Where danger lurks around every word We treasure anonymity And up the sign 'do not disturb' A fearless life is one that smiles Much less than ours, it has no need For what contentment puts its trust No further than the eye can see? Until then it's smiles all round On cartoon cars and burger clowns While at the local stomping ground Were overheard these words profound 'What d'you think you're smiling at?' We've reached the fear of happy face! Now we're several times removed from any regard for the human race Let's get angry let's get mad Let's get back to what we had The power to scare will get respect When wrongly linked to intellect A fear delivered wrapped in suits Will have us quaking in our boots It's how the power games trickle down When the smile provokes a frown When you're told there's no debate The things you do just don't relate Let's get angry let's get mad Let's get back to what we had I cannot be the only one Who knows that fear is overcome By seeing it as it really is A means to keep us all transfixed Silent wary hypnotized Blocking out the screams inside Our silence only hides the link Between the minds that dare to think Let's get angry let's get mad Let's get back to what we had
