It May Look That Way
I'm a hippy in plain clothing
The cap just doesn't fit
If my ideals and my wardrobe clash
It doesn't bother me a bit
I've explored my inner psyche
I've had that New Age hit
I have learnt that what you see
Is rarely what you get
Like a pacifist in combats
A peace-worker in fatigues
Like a size-sixteen supermodel
With sartorial special needs
Like an activist in ermine
A hunt-saboteur in tweeds
No matter what I dress it in
Cut my skin - it still bleeds
I don't think so somehow
I don't think so somehow
I don't think so somehow
It may look that way
I don't think so somehow
Yeah, I'm a hippy in plain clothing
Undercover Green
I bang on about An Inconvenient Truth
Which I've never seen
Then I fly because it's cheaper
Than it's ever been
But hey don't look at me that way
I know you know what I mean
I don't think so somehow
I don't think so somehow
I don't think so somehow
It may look that way
I don't think so somehow
It may look that way somehow
Cos I'm a daytime merchant banker
If you'll forgive the rhyming slang
At night time I rip off my suit
And do the dance-floor thang
I invest in global arms trade
I get more bucks for each bang
At weekends I shout 'Stop The War!'
In a pro-peace angry gang
You can always spot an anarchist
They all dress the same
Yeah, the irony is lost on them
It really is a shame
Let's hear it for autonomy
All together now
Yeah, "We're all individuals"
I don't think so somehow
I don't think so somehow
I don't think so somehow
I don't think so somehow
It may look that way
I don't think so somehow
It may look that way somehow
Mmm it may look that way somehow
I don't think so somehow
I don't think so somehow
I don't think so somehow
It may look that way
I don't think so some...
It may look that way
I don't think so some...
It may look that way
I don't think so somehow
The cap just doesn't fit
If my ideals and my wardrobe clash
It doesn't bother me a bit
I've explored my inner psyche
I've had that New Age hit
I have learnt that what you see
Is rarely what you get
Like a pacifist in combats
A peace-worker in fatigues
Like a size-sixteen supermodel

Like an activist in ermine
A hunt-saboteur in tweeds
No matter what I dress it in

I don't think so somehow
I don't think so somehow
I don't think so somehow
It may look that way
I don't think so somehow

It may look that way
I don't think so somehow
