Dont be fooled by appearances,
It only shows what the world already knows
Dont rely on the physical evidence
Of what the x-ray pictures show
Because inside every straight upright citizen a tormented
Emotionally impaired psycologically damaged personality resides
And beside every crooked man stands an angel with wings
And the spirit can do truly wonderous things
As I watch the hump-backed man hobble down the high street
I say a silent prayer for myself
I was taken to the local doctor
For a consultation about my physical health
I heard him ask about my family - history
You see, mrs. davies, it might be hereditary. yes it might
Maybe think about my family, cause socially could be
You were a physical deformity
cos the world only sees what it believes and is revealed in the x-ray
It only knows what it knows, photographs, video and the printed word
Yes/but there is more in this heaven on earth
Than (what)/(what those scientists now and) is revealed on/in the x-ray
Evry morning I got up and looked in the mirror to see if the hump had
Appeared on my back. to my disappointment I was not a freak.
You see, maybe thered be side benefits to become in a cripple,
Side benefits like prioroty seating at football matches. and I thought
If Im gonna be a cripple, Ill go all the way
They could photograph reality,
But they cant picture your fantasy
cos the world only sees what it believes and is revealed in the x-ray
It only knows what it knows, photographs, video and the printed word
Yes/but there is more in this heaven on earth
Than (what)/(what those scientists now and) is revealed on/in the x-ray
cos the world only sees what it believes and is revealed in the x-ray
It only knows what it knows, photographs, video and the printed word
Yes/but there is more in this heaven on earth
Than (what)/(what those scientists now and) is revealed on/in the x-ray
