Transparent People Songtext
von The Green

Transparent people we can see right through
Pass your physical being which does not define you
Your physical action, is a mechanical reaction
To feelings that are too closed to hold!
Your hands and all the busy mechanisms of defense
Guilt in your heart, and your face innocence
I know words coming out of your mouth don′t make sense!
Oh no, you don't make sense!
The way you′re teaching, and you're preaching to me
Thinking that you're reaching, but we realize
That we can see through your lies


It don′t make sense
The way you teach the children all the wrong things
Don′t wanna to grow up, and be no strong team
Realize that they can see through your lies! The wicked mans around me and I don't feel no way
No matter what they do, I keep that smile on my face
And watch the waters running, and the children are gon′ play
I wish for them the happiness I found along the way!
If I teach them right from wrong and never let them go astray
I never want to see them in the hardships and the pain,
The hardships and the pain!
Oh no, you don't make sense!
The way you′re teaching, and your preaching to me
Thinking that you're reaching, but we realize
That we can see through your lies

You can′t judge a book by the color of it's cover
Think of every woman as your sister or your mother
Now in every man you're bredren like your father or your brother
And try to do some good for life, we′ll have to further
And you′re walking of it rightiousness in all your days
Will be brighter, uh, so much, so much, so much!
Brighter than that mid day sun, again
Oh no, you don't make sense!
The way you′re teaching, and your preaching to me
Thinking that you're reaching, but we realize
That we can see through your lies
