The Green - Transparent People lyrics

Transparent people we can see right through
Pass your physical being which
Does not define you your physical action
Is a mechanical reaction
To feelings that are too closed to home
Your hands and all the
Busy mechanisms of defense
Guilt in your heart, and your face innocence
I know words coming out of
Your mouth don't make sense

Oh no, you don't make sense
The way you're teaching
And you're preaching to me
Thinking that you're reaching
But we realize
That we can see through your lies
It don't make sense
The way you teach the children
All the wrong things
Don't want them to grow up
And be no strong team
Realize that they can see through your lies!

The wicked man's around me and
I don't feel no way no matter what they do
I keep that smile on my face
And watch the waters running
And the children are gon' play
I wish for them the happiness
I found along the way!
And to teach them right from wrong
And never let them go astray
I never want to see them in
The hardships and the pain
The hardships and the pain!

Oh no, you don't make sense
The way you're teaching
And you're preaching to me
Thinking that you're reaching
But we realize
That we can see through your lies
Oh no, you don't make sense
The way you teach the children
All the wrong things
Don't want them to grow up
And be no strong team
Realize that they can see through your lies!

You can't judge a book by
The color of it's cover
Think of every woman as your
Sister or your mother
Now in every man you're bredren like
Your father or your brother
And try to do some good for life
We'll have to further
And you're walking of it righteousness
In all your days
Will be brighter, uh, so much, so much
So much!
Brighter than that mid day sun, again

Oh no, you don't make sense
The way you're teaching
And you're preaching to me
Thinking that you're reaching
But we realize
That we can see through your lies
Oh no, you don't make sense
The way you teach the children
All the wrong things
Don't want them to grow up
And be no strong team
Realize that they can see through your lies!
