Each morning these eyes open slightly more to see than the day before
And this night, that's just gone, has made me shake my head and say 'Hang on'
No more
Somewhere in there is a clue
But I have no idea what to
This is a dog
This is a man
This is a dog
This is a man

This screwed up face I see is more or less the same as my own
And when it speaks to me it's more or less familiar, it says 'You'll see'
But I know
Somewhere out there is a sign but it is too hard to define
This is a man
This is a mouse
This is a man
This is a mouse

Oh I wish I could get through to you

Talking life out with this beast
Seems so natural, well at least at the time
This is a dog
This is a man
This is a dog
This is a man

Show me a god
And I'll show you a man
Show me dog
And I'll show you a man
Hear no, speak no
Hear no, fear no
Hear no, feel no
Speak no one
Fear no, hear no
Hear no, hear no, hear no
No, no
Tell no one
