| Dark clothes, skin too
|
| Street lights shine on you
|
| Sudden moves, what do you do
|
| Making its way closer and closer to you
|
| Loud stereo-type dude
|
| Baggy jeans with his crew
|
| He walks past and smiles at you
|
| Thinking we are the same, loving the game
|
| So don’t judge a book by its cover
|
| 'Cause the cover won’t get you very far
|
| Don’t judge a book by its cover
|
| It’s the pages that tell you who you are, hey
|
| Checkpoint, hair tied
|
| Getting judged half his life
|
| Dirty looks as he walks by
|
| Hustling and bustling, tryin' to catch his flight
|
| Random, pat-down
|
| He smiles while they frown
|
| He can’t wait to touch-down
|
| And if he could explain it, he’d walk on that plane and say
|
| Don’t judge a book by its cover
|
| 'Cause the cover won’t get you very far
|
| Don’t judge a book by its cover
|
| It’s the pages that tell you who you are, hey
|
| Don’t judge a book by its cover
|
| 'Cause the cover won’t get you very far
|
| Don’t judge a book by its cover
|
| It’s the pages that tell you who you are, hey
|
| Tell you who you are
|
| And I wonder
|
| Where did the love go?
|
| Yes, I wonder
|
| If there’s anymore hope?
|
| Seems like lately
|
| All that I see
|
| Is some cover-readers
|
| Staring down, yeah, they’re looking down at me
|
| Don’t judge a book by its cover
|
| 'Cause the cover won’t get you very far (very far)
|
| Don’t judge a book by its cover
|
| It’s the pages that tell you who you are, hey
|
| Don’t judge a book by its cover
|
| 'Cause the cover won’t get you very far
|
| Don’t judge a book by its cover
|
| It’s the pages that tell you who you are, hey |
