Lyrics Michael Franks – Sometime I Just Forget To Smile

Earthquakes, and my Bug breaks
You need lights to see through the smog
It’s like D-Day out on the Freeway
I’d like to crawl back under my log

All these Rolls-Royce Hip
Roll down the Sunset Strip
Just like pharaohs down the Nile
Sometimes I just forget to smile

Dog-bites, lost kites
He says «Thanks» but he never says «Please»
We both shave and we jump waves
He never has much skin on his knees

You know he’s got the habit now
For Peter Rabbit now
And Disney crocodiles
Sometimes I just forget to smile

All these movie stars
And all this Jane-and-Tarzan
Just to run the three-minute mile
Sometimes I just forget to smile
