Smile for the Camera

Smile for the camera

with your best blouse on.

Switch to your camera face,

no matter what is going down.

Don’t think of your uncles fingers,

or yesterdays sad dinners,

that you are not a winner,

your lost puppy,

or that you are grumpy.

Look happy

stand straight

don't frown

never pull a face

you look like a clown.

Three, two, one,

everybody smile.

Don’t squint in the sun,

try not to freeze,

say cheese.

This is forever,

you know,

this split second

on show.
