Tell me who do you think you see You're standing in your corner looking out on me You think I'm so predictable Tell me who do you think I am Looks can be deceiving Better guess again Tell me what you see When you look at me You're probably thinking that I want those things Cash, cars – diamond rings Thinkin' on my side the grass is green But you don't know where I have been I could be a wolf in disguise I could be an angel in your eyes Never judge a book by it's cover I could be a crook or your lover I could be the one or the other If you'd look beneath you'd discover You just don't know me! Tell me who do you think you see You're standing in your corner looking out on me You think I'm so predictable Tell me who do you think I am Looks can be deceiving Better guess again Tell me what you see When you look at me You look at your neighbor thinking, "what a guy" 'Cause he's got a 9-5 And I bet that you don't realize He stalks you while you sleep at night Yet you're scared of the homeless guy Think he's gonna wanna start a fight Never judge a book by its cover I could be a crook or your lover I could be the one or the other If you'd look beneath you'd discover You just don't know me! Tell me who do you think you see You're standing in your corner looking out on me You think I'm so predictable Tell me who do you think I am Looks can be deceiving Better guess again Tell me what you see When you look at me Tell me who do you think you see You're standing in your corner looking out on me You think I'm so predictable Tell me who do you think I am Looks can be deceiving Better guess again Tell me what you see When you look at me Now tell me, who do you think I am? Huh? You don't even know me Well did you think about this I could be a crook or your lover I could be the one or the other If you'd look beneath you'd discover You just don't know me! Tell me who do you think you see You're standing in your corner looking out on me You think I'm so predictable Tell me who do you think I am Looks can be deceiving Better guess again Tell me what you see When you look at me Tell me who do you think you see You're standing in your corner looking out on me You think I'm so predictable Tell me who do you think I am Looks can be deceiving Better guess again Tell me what you see When you look at me
