Joan Armatrading - Show some emotion

Show some emotion
Put expression in your eyes
Light up if you're feeling happy
But if it's bad then let those tears roll down

Some people hurting
Someone choking up inside, some poor souls dying
Too proud to say, they got no place to lie
And there's people if they hear a joke
Can't keep the laugh out of their eye

I said, "Show some emotion
Put expression in your eyes
Light up if you're feeling happy
But if it's bad then let those tears roll down"

Some people in love
But all they got's a photography
How can they get it too scared
To open their mouth and ask

I said, "Show some emotion
Put expression in your eyes
Light up if you're feeling happy
But if it's bad then let those tears roll down"

Come on try learn to bleed
When you get a bad fall
Light up, light up, light up if it's nice
But if it's bad then let those tears roll down

I said, "Show some emotion
Put expression in your eyes
Light up if you're feeling happy
But if it's bad then let those tears roll down"

Come on try, come on try, come on try
Light up, light up, light up if it's nice
But if it's bad then let those tears roll down
And it's bad then let those tears roll down
