Smiling with No Teeth

Lyrics

[Chorus] Everybody wants the summer without holding the rain Everybody wants the feeling without touching the pain Everybody wants the sweetness without tasting the blend Everybody wants the help but they ain't lending a hand Yes indeed Oh, yes indeed [Verse 1] Keep the grammy for you, we need an Oscar The greatest actors the world has ever seen Slathering honey on our demons for the palate of the apathetic Isn't that pathetic? Our temples are at capacity but we continue to cram in Body after body Soul after soul Opinion aftеr opinion 'Til we don't care What's really ours [Chorus] Evеrybody wants the summer without holding the rain Everybody wants the feeling without touching the pain Everybody wants the sweetness without tasting the bland Everybody wants the help but they ain't lending a hand Yes indeed (everybody, everybody) Oh, yes indeed (everybody, everybody) [Verse 2] I would never leave you alone baby Not to say I wouldn't if I could I've read the story of the two black dogs Society's stray and the stray's hound Caressing and stabbing each other with a technician's touch Too many cries have cried with no tears Too many nets cast into fishless lakes Too many smiles cracked with no teeth [Chorus] Everybody wants the summer without holding the rain (holding the rain) Everybody wants the feeling without touching the pain (touching the pain) Everybody wants the sweetness without tasting the bland Everybody wants the help but they ain't lending a hand Everybody wants the summer without holding the rain Everybody wants the feeling without touching the pain Everybody wants the sweetness without tasting the bland Everybody wants the help but they ain't lending a hand Yes indeed, yeah [Outro] Smiling with no teeth, yeah Smiling with no teeth Smiling with no teeth
