Hello man With the sullen face Sunken eyes And matted hair Please don't frown so much You might iron permanent lines into your brow And that would be a terrible shame. I wonder what has troubled you Or what troubles you still Maybe it's people like me Trying to coax you out of your misery I promise you, Stranger I always mean well But intentions can be misconstrued. I must admit, I find it mildly discomforting That your solemn mood is affecting my own So come on, Stranger Do I not deserve a smile?

Hello, Stranger
Hello man With the sullen face Sunken eyes And matted hair Please don't frown so much You might iron permanent lines into your brow And that would be a terrible shame. I wonder what has troubled you Or what troubles you still Maybe it's people like me Trying to coax you out of your misery I promise you, Stranger I always mean well But intentions can be misconstrued. I must admit, I find it mildly discomforting That your solemn mood is affecting my own So come on, Stranger Do I not deserve a smile?
