Speak it to me gently
Tell me in the ways that I wanna hear
Crack a smile with me
Let me in, at least as someone new
Looks like I've gone crazy
Hollywood seems quiet when I'm out
Drift through showbiz lately
A man is lost 'til he finds doubt

So just smile (Just smile)
Get super wild (Super wild)
Baby, "Rebel Yell" is playing in the taxi
Skin-deep (Skin-deep)
Don't sleep (Don't sleep)
Maybe I'm permanently lonely

(Ah)
I'm permanently lonely
(Ah)
I'm permanently lonely

Follow me completely
Nobody can hold you in this way
It could end so sweetly (It could end so sweetly)
I'm new to this game
So yell it to me softly (Soft)
Whisper in my ear that you need me right now
Got you where it's easy, baby
And I'll be sure to be around

Letting go ain't easy
But at the end of the day
That's showbiz, babe

So just smile (Just smile)
Get super wild (Super wild)
Baby, "Rebel Yell" is playing in the taxi
Skin-deep (Skin-deep)
Don't sleep (Don't sleep)
Maybe I'm permanently lonely

(Ah)
I'm permanently lonely
(Ah)
I'm permanently lonely

Can't trust it anyhow
Better than alone right now
I'm permanently lonely, baby
Can't trust it anyhow
Better than alone right now
I'm permanently lonely, baby
Can't trust it anyhow
Better than alone right now
I'm permanently lonely, baby
(Can't trust it anyhow)
(Better than alone right now)
I'm permanently lonely, baby
