[Verse]
See all the people
With hatred in their eyes
I can t help thinking that
It s only a disguise
Cause underneath that core
There s got to be more
Than what we realize
[Verse]
Maybe they re scared
To let the inside out
Maybe they re afraid to
Show what they re all about
So they put on a heavy front and hope that no one else
Can work them out
[Verse]
Look at that lady dancing around with no clothes
She ll give you all her body
That s if you ve got the dough
She ll let you see most
Anything but there s one thing
That she ll never show
And that s a little bit of real emotion
A little bit of true emotion
In case a little bit of emotion
Gives her away
[Chorus]
People learn their lines
And they act out their part
Then they talk on cue
But it s got no heart
It s all on the surface
And it s all contrived
They re scared to come out
Somehow they ve got to survive
[Verse]
Look at that looney
With a smile on his face
He knows no shame
And feels no disgrace
He s got a look in his eyes
That makes it seem that he s from outer space
[Verse]
Maybe that looney knows what it s all about
He s got something to say but he can t spit it out
He s unco-ordinated so we shut him out
{Outro]
In case he shows a little bit of emotion
A little bit of real emotion
We re afraid to see a bit of emotion
So we walk away
Show a little bit of real emotion
Show a little bit of emotion
We re afraid to see a bit of emotion
So we walk away
