Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You can shine your shoes and wear a suit
You can comb your hair and look quite cute
You can hide your face behind a smile
One thing you can't hide is when you're crippled inside
[Verse 2]
You can wear a mask and paint your face
You can call yourself the human race
You can wear a collar and a tie
One thing you can't hide is when you're crippled inside
[Verse 3]
Well now, you know that your cat has nine lives, babe
Nine lives to itself
You only got one, and a dog's life ain't fun
Mama, take a look outside
[Verse 4]
You can go to church and sing a hymn
You can judge me by the color of my skin
You can live a lie until you die
One thing you can't hide is when you're crippled inside
[Verse 5]
Take it, cousin
[Verse 6]
Well now, you know that your cat has nine lives, babe
Nine lives to itself
But you only got one, and a dog's life ain't fun
Mama, take a look outside
[Verse 7]
You can go to church and sing a hymn
Judge me by the color of my skin
You can live a lie until you die
One thing you can't hide is when you're crippled inside
[Verse 8]
One thing you can't hide is when you're crippled inside
One thing you can't hide
Is when you're crippled inside
