Lyrics
Not One Of Us
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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
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
If 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
Not one of us
You're not one of us
Not one of us
You're not one of us
Not one of us
You're not one of us
