People say that you’re decent, people say you’re kind

I’d give a fortune to read your mind

And then I wouldn’t judge you by what you do

But rather by how you think things through

‘Cause although you do as you should

Yes although you do as you should

Perhaps you’re not that good

 

Tell me if you’re so decent, and if you’re so kind

Why should there be any wickedness in your mind

‘Cause if you can choose to do as you ought

Shouldn’t you be able to choose a thought?

Yes although you do as you should

Yes although you do as you should

Perhaps you’re not that good

 

People say that I’m decent, people say I’m kind

Thank God that no one can read my mind
