Текст песни Only One Not Smiling - The Correspondents

Clap along, clap along
He skipped to be the next big thing
But why do I feel like I'm watching an advert every time he sings?
Fair enough, fair enough
Everyone's trying to make a living
Everybody needs to make a deal with
Diet coke to keep all the plates spinning
Am I the only one not smiling in this place?
"Sale now, on sale now! On...
"The big discounts of the year!"
The crowds outside the store are bigger than a Hollywood premier
And I've seen, I've seen two sets of punches thrown
The first for an HD TV, the second for a phone
Am I the only one not smiling in this place?
What's this, what's this? Is it 1955?
He says she's asking for trouble with that dress that shows her thighs
Now, with a bottle of wine, bottle of wine
Oh, I see him making a move
Than I hear him call her freaky just because she refused
She's the only one not smiling in this place
Drink up, drink up, I really want to leave
Those red-faced men in here are shouting stuff wouldn't believe
Anyone, anyone, who's not what they know
Is a direct threat that might infect that status quo
And they're the only ones not smiling in this place
Time out, time out! I wanna get-a this right
I've been to the top three times and three times I though I'd died
Can I opt out, opt out? It's too fast for me
You may wanna see the world as a blur but I would rather sightsee
How will this madness ever reign?
Are we the only ones still smiling in this place?
What do you know, what do you know?
Here I feel just fine
I'm not waiting sun and face to hear something out of line
What do we do, what do we do?
I know it might sound strange
But I can feel a turning point if you can see a change
What do you know, what do you know?
Here I feel just fine
I'm not waiting sun and face to hear something out of line
What do we do, what do we do?
I know it might sound strange
But I can feel a turning point if you can see a change
