No you don't have to wear your best fake smile

Don't have to stand there and burn inside

Oh oh oh if you don't like it.

She's working late and making eyes at the door

She's sick of everybody up on her floor

She wants the sun in her eyes but all she gets is ignored.

She used to put it out and get it all back

But now she's slipping trying to carry the act

She's sweating under the lights, now she's beginning to crack.

Woah...

No you don't have to wear your best fake smile

Don't have to stand there and burn inside

Oh oh oh if you don't like it.

And you don't have to care so don't pretend

Nobody needs a best fake friend

Oh oh oh don't hide it.

No hesitation now she gets up and walks

She thinks of all the pain and pride that it cost

She empties all the tip jars and won't get back what she lost.

Outside the window with two fingers to show

She lifts her head up just to blow out the smoke

She doesn't have to look back to know where she's gotta go.

No you don't have to wear your best fake smile

Don't have to stand there and burn inside

Oh oh oh if you don't like it.

And you don't have to care so don't pretend

Nobody needs a best fake friend

Oh oh oh don't hide it.

If you don't bleed it you don't need it anymore

If you don't need it get up and leave it on the floor

No more believing like it's a voice you can't ignore

If you don't need it you don't need it no.

And you don't have to wear your best fake smile

Don't have to stand there and burn inside

Oh oh oh no if you don't like it.

And you don't have to care so don't pretend

Nobody needs a best fake friend

Oh oh oh don't hide it.

No you don't have to wear your best fake smile

Don't have to stand there and burn inside

Oh oh oh if you don't like it.

Oh oh oh no if you don't like it.
