[Verse]

G D

See all the people

C D

With hatred in their eyes

G D

I can't help thinking that

C D

It's only a disguise

G D

Cause underneath that core

There's got to be more

C D

Than what we realize

[Verse]

G D

Maybe they're scared

C D

To let the inside out

G D

Maybe they're afraid to

C D

Show what they're all about

G D Em

So they put on a heavy front and hope that no one else

C D

Can work them out

Em C D

So they put on all the heaviness

Em C D

But its only illusion heaviness

C Em D

Can't you see

They're scared to

G D C D

Show a little bit of emotion

G D C D

A little bit of real emotion

G B7 Em

In case a little bit of emotion

C D

Gives them away

[Verse]

G D C D

Look at that lady dancing around with no clothes

G D

She'll give you all her body

C D

That's if you've got the dough

G D

She'll let you see most

Anything but there's one thing

C D

That she'll never show

G D C D

And that's a little bit of real emotion

G D C D

A little bit of true emotion

G B7 Em

In case a little bit of emotion

C D

Gives her away

Em C D

But it's a shame she's acting that way

Em C D

Somehow she's gotta get through every day

C Em D

And the only way

G D C D

Is not to show one little bit of emotion

G D C D

A little bit of true emotion

G B7 Em C D

In case a little bit of emotion gives her away

[Chorus]

People learn their lines

And they act out their part

Then they talk on cue

But it's got no heart

It's all on the surface

And it's all contrived

They're scared to come out

C D

Somehow they've got to survive

[Verse]

G D

Look at that looney

C D

With a smile on his face

G D

He knows no shame

C D

And feels no disgrace

G D

He's got a look in his eyes

Em C D

That makes it seem that he's from outer space

[Verse]

G D C D

Maybe that looney knows what it's all about

G D C D

He's got something to say but he can't spit it out

G D Em C D

He's unco-ordinated so we shut him out

{Outro]

G D C D

In case he shows a little bit of emotion

G D C D

A little bit of real emotion

G B7 Em

We're afraid to see a bit of emotion

C D

So we walk away

G D C D

Show a little bit of real emotion

G D C D

Show a little bit of emotion

G B7 Em

We're afraid to see a bit of emotion

C D

So we walk away
