Lyrics
What You See Is What You Get
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.
He used to be a God and now it's not the same,
coming from the blind man he thinks it's just a game.
Not up for what you want he hasn't got the balls,
taking it from the powerpit it's not what he thinks at all.
Coming all the way back again, (yeah yeah yeah yeah)
For a revolution of this age, (yeah yeah yeah)
What you see is what you get.
He tells you once, he tells you twice: Forgive and forget.
He used to be the Lord that everyone saw new,
it's just a gut feeling from the untrained eye.
He told her he was Superman and had flown around the world,
i told her that it was a load of crap and she's a gullible girl.
Coming all the way back again, (yeah yeah yeah yeah)
For a revolution of this age, (yeah yeah yeah)
What you see is what you get.
He tells you once, he tells you twice: Forgive and forget.
Coming all the way back again, (yeah yeah yeah yeah)
For a revolution of this age, (yeah yeah yeah)
What you see is what you get.
He tells you once, he tells you twice: Forgive and forget.
