Yes I'm a waitress-
Which doesn't mean I'm dumb
People skills are declining in need
But still you all come
I'm here 40 hours a week
Clean the restaurant before I start
Some days I feel ok
Most days I've a broken heart
Even though I'm cracked inside
And my fake smile wants to frown
I'll give a night you'll never forget
Face painted like a clown
You have no idea
in your one hour break
Or your 30th birthday
Which I will make great
That just last night
I received bad news
But I have to work still
I don't get to choose
I'm dying inside
but you'd never guess
Smiling my head off
Though my hearts in a mess
So next time you come
and I'm not the best you've had
Just remember I'm human
And I'm losing my dad
Like many I work long hard hours and have to smile through the cracks in my heart. Generally I'm treated well by the customers I serve, but there are times when I'm looked down on and some days it takes every bit of love in my body, to keep smiling at someone who is just ring mean
