WHAT WE GET
Writer: Richard Aberdeen ASCAP
Publisher: Freedom Tracks Music ASCAP

You're no better than me, I'm no better than you
A painful lesson of history more than a little bit true
You know, it's a pretty safe bet, we ain't quite perfect yet
And baby, what we see, is what we get

Yeah, what we see, is what we get
Take a look in the mirror and pray your mama ain't too upset
Beauty may be overblown, but ugly inside cuts to the bone
And baby, what we see, is what we get

Be cool, don't be cruel and be a bully
Lord knows how many, many tears I've cried
It's plain to see you're a whole lot like me
Well, sure hope, hope you're satisfied

You're no better than me, we're baptized by the same rain
LGBTQ, a to z, under God ain't we all the same?
What we do to people we screw, no doubt, we'll soon regret
And baby, what we see, is what we get

Yeah, what we see, is what we get
Take a look in the mirror and pray your mama ain't too upset
The eye is a window to the soul, when it's empty there's no light to behold
And baby, what we see, is what we get

You know, for God so loved the people
Can't run or hide behind no steeple
Put down your neighbor, you ain't no better
That's what it says in the Romans letter
No, don't tell your mama 'cause it might upset her
You ain't no better, you just ain't no better

And, what we see, is what we get
Take a look in the mirror an' don't cry, jus' try to forget
The vanity of humanity may be the world's greatest threat
And what we see, what we see, yeah, yeah, is what we get
