The Ugly Underneath

[Verse 1]

First there's the handshake

It's so warm that you could bake by it

Designed to take attention from their

Ugly underneath

Then there's the wedding

The coordinated bedding

And the fairy tale shredding

Boy, it's ugly underneath

And after the pretty

There's a gluttony of pity

On a cake called nitty, gritty

And it's ugly underneath

[Chorus 1]

Did you ever try to prise away the mask

Go ahead, take a spoon and try

I can tell you it's a herculean task

Go ahead, it's okay to cry

What you're chewing on's the truth

And that's the hardest thing

To wash down with a glass of lemonade

The ugly underneath

The thing with politicians is

I wouldn't have suspicions

If I saw their worst positions

And their ugly underneath

But after all the voting

Suck away the sugar coating

Now they've had you and they're gloating

Boy, it's ugly underneath

Did you ever try to roll away the wheel

Go ahead, take a fork and try

See the unattractive things that make us real

Go ahead, it's okay to cry

What you've trodden in's the truth

And that's the hardest thing

To wash down with a glass of lemonade
