You can shine your shoes and wear a suit
You can comb your hair and look quite cute
You can wear a collar and a tie
One thing you can't hide
Is when you're crippled inside
You can wear a mask and paint your face
You can call yourself the human race
You can hide your face behind a smile
One thing you can't hide
Is when you're crippled inside
Middle eight:
Well now you
[A]Know that a cat has nine lives, [A7]babe.
[D]Nine lives to it[G]self.[C] [G]
But [C]you only got one
And a [C]dogs life ain't fun
[C]Mama take a [G7]look out[C]side
You can go to church and sing a hymn
Judge me by the color of my skin
You can live a lie 'till you die
One thing you can't hide
Is when you're crippled inside
(Repeat middle eight)
You can go to church and sing a hymn
Judge me by the color of my skin
You can live a lie 'till you die
One thing you can't hide
Is when you're crippled inside
One thing you can't hide
Is when you're crippled inside
(slowly)
Oh, I say you can't hide
When you're crippled inside
