mask shop

why be depressing
if you can be suppressing
all those needs and urges
to hide yo'self from the judges
to hide yo’ soul and yo’ heart
that’s just smart, smart, smart, smart

don’t show ya real face
don’t show ya real thoughts
don’t show ya real heart
don’t let them know


and you see my shop?

masks of all kinds
masks for all minds
laughing, crying
angry, smiling
birds and foxes
all in boxes
they are waitin’
for you to come in
come on in

take your pick, dear friend
if you want your pain to end
make a choice, little boy
leave or take this new nice toy
choose wisely
or surprise will
get you with your pants off

so
what will you do? what will you say?
will you just leave, or will you stay?

we have a box
ready for you
just for you
pure and new

but don’t forget
don’t show ya real face
don’t show ya real thoughts
don’t show ya real heart
don’t let them know

take your pick, dear friend
if you want your pain to end
make a choice, little boy
leave or take this new nice toy
choose wisely
or surprise will
get you with your pants off

so
what will you do? what will you say?
will you just leave, or will you stay?
