Bravest Face lyrics

Though we might have precious little

it’s still precious

I like that song

about this wonderful world

It’s got a sunny point of view

and sometimes I feel it’s true

at least for a few of us

I like that world

It makes a wonderful song

But there’s a darker point of view

that’s sadly just as true

for so many among us

In the sweetest child there’s a vicious streak

In the strongest men there is a child so weak

In the whole wide world there’s no magic place

so you might as well rise

Put on your bravest face

I like that show

where they solve all the murders

That heroic point of view

It’s got justice and vengeance, too—

at least, so the story goes

I like that story—

makes a satisfying case

But there’s a messy point of view

that’s sadly just as true

for so many among us

In the softest voice there’s an acid tongue

In the oldest eyes there’s a soul so young

In the shakiest will there’s a core of steel

On the smoothest ride there’s a squeaky wheel

Though we might have precious little

it’s still precious
