Smiling faces sometimes pretend to be your friend
Smiling faces show no traces of the evil that lurks within
Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes
They don't tell the truth uh
Smiling faces, smiling faces
Tell lies and I got proof

The truth is in the eyes
Cause the eyes don't lie, amen
Remember a smile is just
A frown turned upside down
My friend let me tell you
Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes
They don't tell the truth, uh
Smiling faces, smiling faces
Tell lies and I got proof
Beware, beware of the handshake
That hides the snake
I'm telling you beware
Beware of the pat on the back
It just might hold you back
Jealousy (jealousy)
Misery (misery)
Envy

I tell you, you can't see behind smiling faces
Smiling faces sometimes they don't tell the truth
Smiling faces, smiling faces
Tell lies and I got proof

Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes
They don't tell the truth
Smiling faces, smiling faces
Tell lies and I got proof
(Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes)
(Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes)
I'm telling you beware, beware of the handshake
That hides the snake
Listen to me now, beware
Beware of that pat on the back
It just might hold you back
Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes
They don't tell the truth
Smiling faces, smiling faces
Tell lies and I got proof

Your enemy won't do you no harm
Cause you'll know where he's coming from
Don't let the handshake and the smile fool ya
Take my advice I'm only try' to school ya

QFUT

Gwen Stefani, Hollaback Girl

Youth of Today - Stabbed in the Back

Dresden Dolls - Backstabber, except don't ever put them on any mix, ever

Magazine - Shot By Both Sides

Train in Vain?

A trope that comes up again and again is the song -- particularly the soul song, for some reason -- that just oozes paranoia even when the (unreliable) narrator is trying to sound genuinely put-upon. "Backstabbers" by the O'Jays and "Smiling Faces" are both prime examples. There are dozens, I'm sure -- a few months ago I noticed that another song that goes into that category is "Everything She Wants" by Wham! -- she takes all his money. What's with these bitches be takin' my money?! omgwtf etc

"Backstabbers" is really kinda creepy, if you think about it. This is one jealous dude. This is not going to end well. :(

Kid Creole & the Coconuts - Stool Pigeon

hello!

Lou Reed, Dirt

Oops.

John Cale - Guts

lauryn hill - forgive them father
tlc - case of the fake people

Damned, Stab Yor Back

... duh

Not the lyrical angle you're looking for and I can't think of any possible mix that this would work on, but the thread title has put "High Expectations" by Stereolab in my head for the lines "do you really want to stab your enemy in the back? I don't, I don't, I'm sorry: stab him in the front", so I thought I'd unload them here.

Devil In Disguise: Flying Burrito Brothers

She's a devil in disguise you can see it in her eyes
She's telling dirty lies she's a devil in disguise in disguise

Now a woman like that all she does is hate you
She doesn't know what makes a man a man
She'll talk about the times that she's been with you
She'll speak your name to everyone she can

She's a devil in disguise you can see it in her eyes
She's telling dirty lies she's a devil in disguise in disguise

Unhappiness has been her close companion
Her world is full of jealousy and doubt
It gets her off to see a person crying
She's just the kind that you can't do without

She's a devil in disguise you can see it in her eyes
She's telling dirty lies she's a devil in disguise in disguise

Her number always turns up in your pocket
Whenever you are looking for a dime
It's all right to call her but I'll bet you
The moon is full and your just wasting time

WHY HELLO THAR

Whyte Boots - "Nightmare"

Black Flag - I Can See You

Steely Dan - Everything You Did

AC/DC-Kicked in the Teeth

that whyte boots track is pretty awesome

some really great ideas here... thank you, thank you! don't stop now.

oran juice jones - the rain.
turntable orchestra - you're gonna miss me.

"Jody's Got Your Girl and Gone" and a whole ton of other cheating songs

lauryn hill - lost one

or even better the pretty nasty bootleg version here lauryn and pras are both having a pretty good go at wyclef

"Vanz Kant Danz" - John Fogerty (aka "Zanz Kant Danz")

My friend wants me to make him a music mix for his new kid. Apparently it's good for the baby to have dulcet music playing in the background.

I definitely want to put Plaid - Ralome on there.

And then maybe something by Plone.

Any other ideas?
