i can not hide
i can not hide
from my soul inside
searching preaching, maybe teaching
i try not preaching, i try not teaching
persecutors inside
brain been bouncing to the dead
operator playing outside my head

i can not hide
i can not hide
tatters inside
brokedown palace you are the child
searching and preaching maybe teaching
i try my best not to preach i try my best not to teach

lead by example
way to go
you said you was a flower child
cheeks mild
turn the teacher wild
oh candyman what is your ide-a
wouldn't you want to see 'ya
