The Hollow Chameleon Smile

The smile is saggy, fake And freakish, not real at all Like a weak wave in the lake A capricious way to control To manage true feelings That do not mirror the heart Like an actor playing a bad part In the middle of the ring. Let the fat lady sing The truth will come out One can only hide bad feelings Without a doubt The hypocrites are like that The backstabbers emulate The shadow of the conniving rat All day, all night as of late. The chameleon is tricky, sneaky That's bad news everywhere Something that's no longer rare In this violent and crazy society The smile is unnatural, uneven That can cause a lot of pain A special rainbow is in the sky Hell is waiting for the spies.
