Lyrics You Can't Judge a Book by the Cover - John Wetton, Richard Palmer-James

You Can't Judge a Book by the Cover

You can’t judge an apple by looking at the tree
You can’t judge honey by looking at the bee
You can’t judge a daughter by looking at the mother
You can’t judge a book by looking at the cover
Can’t you see
Well how you’ll misjudge me?
I look like a father
Baby I’m a lover
You can’t judge a book by looking at the cover, no
You can’t judge sugar by looking at the cane
You can’t judge a woman by looking at the man
You can’t judge a man by looking at his brother
You can’t judge a book by looking at the cover
Can’t you see
Well how you’ll misjudge me?
I look like a father
Baby I’m a lover
You can’t judge a book by looking at the cover, no
You can’t judge a fish by looking at the pond
You can’t judge a wizard by looking at his wand
You can’t judge one by looking at the other
You can’t judge a book by looking at the cover
Can’t you see
Well how you’ll misjudge me?
I look like a father
Baby I’m a lover
You can’t judge a book by looking at the cover, no
