I have a face for the workplace, one for the street fight
A face for unwanted fatherhood
One like a poker player, one like an opera diva
A face for social media
A face for the deep conversation
A face that pretends to handle criticism
A face for love, a face when it's gone
A face for everyone who bothers me with their pity
I have faces for the rural area
A face when buying potency pills for a good friend
A face that makes my babble about coral reefs and limestone layers
Look like more than half-knowledge
For my face when someone says I can't laugh about religions
I always have a cactus or two in my pockets
If necessary, I'll talk to a plastic surgeon
I'd like to have concern in my Botox masks

I need a face right now
That looks like I care
I need a face right now
Something nice to wear
Creating lovely masks to hide
That I'm dead inside, woo

I have a face for victory poses, one for losing the game
Head back, I have a face for those up there
A face for bouncing balls at the bus stop
A face for all occasions
A face for "We don't lose our fighting spirit, boys"
A face for "I really need a sick note"
Emojis go out to my homies
While my face looks like I'm writing a threatening letter
I have faces for stories about female colleagues
Who said something about things here
My face instead of listening to her during annoying chatter
Mimicking your expressions like a hall of mirrors
Even if there's an error rate with every stupid joke
I laugh like a guy choking on a cheese sandwich
Sometimes I mix up the look when you send me baby photos
With my say-forever-goodbye face, it happens

I need a face right now
That looks like I care
I need a face right now
Something nice to wear
Creating lovely masks to hide
That I'm dead inside, indeed

From face to face
When no one is looking
I press the power switch
As a zipper
Enjoy the time without voyeurs
Make the visage an intimate area
And insert a new Buster Keaton film
Into my mind's cinema

For those who just tuned in
I have more faces than cartoon designers draw
A face for the Oxford study, one for the Eastern Bloc whore
One for your well-intentioned cooking attempts
One for "I didn't fart" from the knight's etiquette course
A face for in-between
A face that tells my children without blushing
"I'm sure I'll die drug-free," of course

I need a face right now
That looks like I care
I need a face right now
Something nice to wear
Creating lovely masks to hide
That I'm dead inside
