Stephin Merritt - Not One of Us lyrics
[Stephin Merritt - Not One of Us lyrics]
It's only water in a stranger's tear
Looks are deceptive
But distinctions are clear
A foreign body and a foreign mind
Never welcome in the land of the blind
You may look like we do talk like we do
But you know how it is
You're not one of us, not one of us
No, you're not one of us
You're not one of us, not one of us
No, you're not one of us
There's safety in numbers
When you learn to divide how can we be in
When there is no outside?
All shades of opinion feed an open mind
But your values are twisted
Let us help you unwind
You may look like we do talk like we do
But you know how it is
You're not one of us, not one of us
No, you're not one of us
You're not one of us, not one of us
No, you're not one of us
You may look like we do talk like we do
But you know how it is
You're not one of us, not one of us
No, you're not one of us
You're not one of us, not one of us
No, you're not one of us
You're not one of us, not one of us
No, you're not one of us
You're not one of us, not one of us
No, you're not one of us
You're not one of us, not one of us
No, you're not one of us
You're not one of us, not one of us
No, you're not one of us
Looks are deceptive
But distinctions are clear
A foreign body and a foreign mind
Never welcome in the land of the blind
You may look like we do talk like we do
But you know how it is
You're not one of us, not one of us
No, you're not one of us
You're not one of us, not one of us
No, you're not one of us
There's safety in numbers
When you learn to divide how can we be in
When there is no outside?
All shades of opinion feed an open mind
But your values are twisted
Let us help you unwind
You may look like we do talk like we do
But you know how it is
You're not one of us, not one of us
No, you're not one of us
You're not one of us, not one of us
No, you're not one of us
You may look like we do talk like we do
But you know how it is
You're not one of us, not one of us
No, you're not one of us
You're not one of us, not one of us
No, you're not one of us
You're not one of us, not one of us
No, you're not one of us
You're not one of us, not one of us
No, you're not one of us
You're not one of us, not one of us
No, you're not one of us
You're not one of us, not one of us
No, you're not one of us
