The Judge

I see you passing judgment

It ain't a judgment day

And I can't let you misjudge me that way

Ain't shooting for perfection

I'm scared of my reflection

But I can't let you misjudge me that way

I used to think that I could raise myself above it

You could make me break down and cry

But you can't make me love it

And I can't fake it, you can't take it

I ain't holdin' no grudge

'Cause I can't judge him, and you can't judge him

And who's gonna judge the judge?

Who's gonna judge the judge?

High falootin aloofing

Has got you in its ways

And I can't let you misjudge me that way

Not that I care what you think of me

But I hear every word that you say

And I can't let you misjudge me that way

Sticks and stones may break my bones, but I can take the blame

You can find yourself a new scapegoat, but I won't play no game

I can't make it, you can't take it

I ain't holding no grudge

'Cause I can't judge him, and you can't judge him

And who's gonna judge the judge?

Who's gonna judge the judge?

Whooooo-aaaa

(What did you do, so beautiful, so pretty

You look so pretty, beautiful)

I see you pointing fingers

You're pointing one my way

And I can't let you misjudge me that way

Now, now, now I never said I was innocent for justice is gonna find a way

And I can't let you misjudge me that way

No, no, no I can't let you misjudge me that way

And I can't let you misjudge me that way-ay-ay-ay
