maybe you'll get a genuine smile

instead of an awkward, faked, forced one.

or maybe she'll tell you her problems, and why she isn't wearing a smile at that particular moment, which is what I'd do

you tell me to smile

I'm stopping you on the street and laying it out there

my dog died
I just lost my bus pass

my car has a scratch on it

my boss just fucking railed on me in front of everyone and I'm headed to the Starbucks to get his latte with soy milk and extra foam even though he's never gonna give me that raise I deserve because he's fucking Carla from accounting and that BITCH gets all the perks even though she got her degree from junior college and I graduated summa cum laude!! Can you believe that bullshit??? Would you be smiling if you knew you had to work another 2 years in this bullshit ass dept before you get another promotion??

walk with me to Starbucks, I got more to tell you
