Lyrics Smiling Faces Sometimes - The Temptations

Smiling faces sometimes pretend to be your friend
Smiling faces show no traces of the evil that lurks within
Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes
They don′t tell the truth, uh
Smiling faces, smiling faces
Tell lies and I got proof

The truth is in the eyes
'Cause the eyes don′t lie, amen
Remember a smile is just
A frown turned upside down
My friend let me tell you

Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes
They don't tell the truth, uh
Smiling faces, smiling faces
Tell lies and I got proof

Beware, beware of the handshake
That hides the snake
I'm telling you beware
Beware of the pat on the back
It just might hold you back
Jealousy (jealousy)
Misery (misery)
Envy I tell you, you can′t see behind smiling faces

Smiling faces sometimes they don′t tell the truth
Smiling faces, smiling faces
Tell lies and I got proof

Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes
They don't tell the truth
Smiling faces, smiling faces
Tell lies and I got proof

Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes
Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes

I′m telling you beware, beware of the handshake
That hides the snake
Listen to me now, beware
Beware of that pat on the back
It just might hold you back

Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes
They don't tell the truth
Smiling faces, smiling faces
Tell lies and I got proof

Your enemy won′t do you no harm
'Cause you′ll know where he's coming from
Don't let the handshake and the smile fool ya
Take my advice I′m only tryin′ to school ya

Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes
They don't tell the truth
Smiling faces, smiling faces
Tell lies and I got proof

Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes
They don′t tell the truth
Smiling faces, smiling faces
Tell lies and I got proof

Beware, beware of the handshake
That hides the snake

The impossible task is to figure out
Which of the smiles is a mask
Think about it
Did you hear?
The impossible task
Is to figure out
Which of the smiles
Is a mask

Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes
Don't show the truth
Smiling faces, smiling faces
Tell lies and I got proof

Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes
Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes

Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes
Don′t show the truth
Smiling faces, smiling faces
Tell lies, lies, lies and I got proof

Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes
Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes

Which of the smiles is a mask
The impossible task is to figure out
Which of the smiles is a mask
The impossible task is to figure out
Which of the smiles is a mask
The impossible task is to figure out
Which of the smiles is a mask
The impossible task is to figure out
Which of the smiles is a mask
