Illegal Smile
By John Prine
When I Woke Up This Morning Things Were Looking Bad
It Seemed Like Total Silence Was The Only Friend I Had
A Bowl Of Oatmeal Tried To Stare Me Down And Won
And It Was 12 O'clock Before I Realized I Was Having No Fun
Ah But Fortunately I Have The Key To Escape Reality
Cho: And You May See Me Tonight With An Illegal Smile
It Don't Cost Very Much But It Lasts A Long While
Won't You Please Tell The Man I Didn't Kill Anyone
No I'm Just Tryin' To Have Me Some Fun
Last Time I Checked My Bankroll It Was Gettin' Thin
Sometimes It Seems Like The Bottom Is The Only Place I've Been
I Chased A Rainbow Down A Oneway Street Dead End
And All My Friends Turned Out To Be Insurance Salesmen
Ah But Fortunately I Have The Key To Escape Reality
Cho
I Went Into My Closet With All My Overalls
Tryin' To Get Away From All The Ears Inside My Walls
Suppose The Police Heard Everything I Thought: What Then?
Well I Went To Court And The Judge's Name Was Hoffman
Ah But Fortunately I Have The Key To Escape Reality
Cho
