You’re Not In On the Joke (iTunes Session)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Don't take them faces at their value In a cynical town Yeah, an't you smell the stale air? I had no skill but I had heart So then I turned it around You must remember I'm no cynic You know I'm just getting bored I'm no cynic You know I got a heart of gold Woah-oh [Pre-Chorus] They say I'm Cold, cold, cold Baby, why so cold? I'm super sweet Sealed with a kiss Don't get offended if there's something you missed [Chorus] I only show you what I want you to see I got my t-t-t-tongue in my cheek If you see them laughing (You see them laughing) Don't follow in 'Cause they're not in on the joke [Verse 2] I got my picture in the paper And my dad, he was proud "Hey kid, that's not a bad job yeah" Next thing you know Peculiar faces start hanging around Dear lord, could you spare me? I've got just one side to show you all My ass is awesome So smile when you're kissing it all Oh-oh-oh [Pre-Chorus] They say I'm Cold, cold, cold Gabey, you so cold I'm super sweet Sealed with a kiss Call your professor if there's something you missed [Chorus] I only show you what I want you to see I got my t-t-t-tongue in my cheek If you see them laughing (You see them laughing) Don't follow in 'Cause they're the butt of my joke I'll always be just who you want me to be And keep my tongue, tongue in my cheek A hopeless romantic (You see them laughing) You'll never see 'Cause you're not in on the joke And you're not in on the joke [Chorus] I only show you what I want you to see I got my tongue, tongue in my cheek If you see them laughing (You see them laughing) Don't follow in 'Cause they're the butt of my joke I'll always be just who you want me to be And keep my t-t-t-tongue in my cheek A hopeless romantic (You see them laughing) You'll never see 'Cause you're not in on the joke
