Weezer - Fake Smiles And Nervous Laughter Lyrics
Grungy girls and punk rock boys
Can't be heard above the noise
Awkward handshakes, bumps and hugs
Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh
It's not the way you thought it was
I would rather hear you curse me out
Then give me fake smiles
And all that nervous laughter
When you say what you hate
Makes me feel kinda great
You have authority
Taxi drivers sell their weed
My Ani DiFranco scream
Gold high tops with no socks on
I would rather hear you curse me out
Then give me fake smiles
And all that nervous laughter
When you say what you hate
It makes me feel kinda great
You have authority
I would rather see you flip me off
Then give me fake smiles
And all that nervous laughter
When you say what you hate
Makes me feel kinda great
It's beautiful to me
It's hard to be real with all the temptations
All the flying daggers
It's hard to be true when honesty kills you
Can anybody hear me?
I'm begging darling oh
Give me a chance to let you know
It's hard to be true when honesty kills you
Can anybody hear me?
I would rather hear you curse me out
Then give me fake smiles
And all that nervous laughter
When you say what you hate
It makes me feel kinda great
You have authority
I would rather see you flip me off
Then give me fake smiles
And all that nervous laughter
When you say what you hate
Makes me feel kinda great
It's beautiful to me

Weezer Fake Smiles And Nervous Laughter Comments
Three words, Pavement Beach Boys.
This actually sounds like old weezer!
no matter who you are you can identify with this song
Has a Pinkerton vibe
The title is me at any social gathering.
Thanks! Love it! You've been writing the songs in my head, only with better melodies. Thanks for doing that for many of us, as I'm too busy with 22 other projects (finishing books, poems, a sci do novel, supervising broken chairs, vetting the room better for gf, dos for stud. loans etc. ).
Great song!
You do realize I'm not the real Rivers, right?
Hah , Sorry, you had me fooled for a few seconds, but I did really figure it could be either real, or not, and it wouldn't matter much, as we all get to say our thoughts. Still, I like celebrating such a well written song. Take care!
ooooo, its good!
crunchy girls and pop rock boys
What beach did they take that picture at?
Bearhands Joe probably the one next to santa monica to the left

Ini baru =w=
This has to be one of their most underrated songs
I hope they release Helter Skelter. I can't believe that didn't make it to the White Album.
now this is the weezer i know and love
THIS is Weezer
Weezer最高
Man Weezer still kills it years later
Will there be a Black Album? :D
Yes! But hopefully along the lines of Maladroit and not Raditude :/
@Monster Mash I have some bad news...
The White Album was great, but it would have been even better with this and Friend of a Friend on it.
i love the lofi weezer
should've been on the normal edition tbh, one of the better songs on the record
Long live Weezer! Awesome song!
I think Friend of a friend was a stronger track and should have been the choice for the split vinyl single with Wavves over this tune. These bonus songs seem to have been outtakes recorded during their white album sessions. To me though if this particular song had more of a raw/recorded live demo feel to it, I can hear it in that context fitting right in amongst all those Maladroit and Make believe era demos that didn't make the cut for those releases. And as much as I dig the off the wall for Weezer piano based sound of the original Jacked up, the bonus remix edition has totally grown on me. I'm still partial to the original Lp version but the remix version somehow puts me in the mind set of being younger again and trying to Mac with a girl at a club. Especially when the female vocals kick in! It truly makes me feel like I wish I'd be grinding up on some dance floor with a Paris Hilton type in some trendy Vegas dance club! Overall the bonus tracks are great though!
Friend of a Friend to me was White album worthy :( Wish they had included it. It sounds like a Pinkerton meets Green tune. Great song. This track is ok. The others are decent but FOAF is great Weezer.
Well Mexican Fender was actually a White outtake
Authoritah!
Sounds like Rivers got out his EML 101 again :)
i cant believe song from pinkerton are still coming out!
Jacob Bastian Nah, they just used some pinkerton inspired artwork for the single. This was recorded during white
warriorservant they said it was an unrecorded song wrote durring pinkerton?
warriorservant that they brought back for white but ended up being a bside
Jacob Bastian oh cool
Really like this song. It captures very well Weezer's classic bittersweet sound
Amazing yet again! Sounds sorta like the rentals old stuff ;P
This song is so true. Probably because it's from the Pinkerton era. I like Friend of a Friend more though.
Nerdvana you got proof on that?
Maybe they think that because the picture used for the release of this b-side is the pinkerton cover with a skeleton dude drawn in the sky.
simply awesome
My favorite of the 3, friend of a friend is #2... I love the original jacked up so much I can't like the remix lol
thats why its on the deluxe tho haha
yeah i mean its okay, im fine with it on the deluxe.. wasn't expecting it but it fits
I like the vocals and the raw sound, but the lyrics, god no :D
wish it was on the album, is awesome
👐🏻👐🏼👐🏽👐🏾👐🏿
I love it! =w=
"I would rather see you flip me off than give me fake smiles" true
Another classic
god damn...
Alyers you half japanese girls
why didnt i see that coming??
alyers oh the redhead said you shred the celo
Supreme West and I’m jello
Some White album B Sides =w= Nice!
Or deluxe songs
Brandon Lopez its originally from pinkerton . re recorded for the white album . then once again cut😂
+Jacob Bastian
that's just not true lol
This really reminds me of some of the older weezer stuff, like the blue album or pinkerton
Make Weezer Great Again
dis song is gud :(
They are great again. Did you listen to EWBAITE and the white album!?
Eli W People are really hating on the new song lol
ayeeeee
the good kinda aye
Well this is awesome
I keep on seeing the annoying comment on every non-album track "They should've replaced Thank God For Girls with this one," well in this case I agree (and I love TGFG)
I think this song is better than wind in our sail
i love it!!!!
Pretty Good!
I love Weezer
I love this more raw sounding music, it's why Pinkerton is my favoruite album. White is in my top three Weezer albums
I mean, we all know it's true but it feels bad to say it over and over.
FSANL is an unreleased Pinkerton song
i don't think the song is from Pinkerton, I think it's just the cover
It is but it's rerecorded
im just here to mention ewbaite. love that record
Weezer makes my day
Thanks =w=
I like this way more than Thank God For Girls. Shame this didn't end up on the album. :/
it is on the album for the deluxe edition
Yea I really like this one more than thank god for girls I mean it's good but I like this one more.
The fact it was the first single made me think like "Weezer what did you do?"
the vocals on these two new songs are a bit off, they seem a bit demo quality, other than that, good bsides.
This one is probably the highest form of demo. Potentially intended for mastering, but never done.
nice pun! 😄 thats what i love bout them!! 👐
Fake Smiles and Nervous Laughter is an unreleased Pinkerton song. look up their instagram
Wrong, Joshey The single cover is a riff on pinkerton, but that isnt related to the song
They're going for their old Blue and Pinkterton sound
THANKS AGAIN WEEZER!
Nervous laughter excellent weezer toon
This is beautiful... I have no words...
the title sounds very FOB-like
It does!
Unkn0wnZ I don't know if you heard the news, but Weezer's lawyers told them to change the title of the song to avoid being sued by FOB
if your going there then I could argue that it sounds more like the name of a Panic at the Disco song.
More panic! Not wordy enough for fob
Oh yes my body is ready
