You can shine your shoes and wear a suit,
You can comb your hair and look quite cute,
You can hide your face behind a smile,
One thing you can't hide is when your crippled inside,
You can wear a mask and paint you face,
You can call youself a new race,
You can Wear a coller and a tie,
One thing you can't hide is when your crippled inside,
Well you know your cat has nine lives babe,
Nine lives to it's self,
But you only got one and a dog's life ain't fun,
Mamma take alook outside,
You can go to church and sing a hymn,
Judge me by the colour of my skin,
You can live a lie untill you die,
One thing you can't hide is when you crippled inside
