Clothes Don’t Make the Man

lyrics by Leslie Berry, music by David Berry

Put on your party smile tonight;
The eyes like diamonds that sparkle and shine.
Amuse them with your sardonic wit.
Who hears the truth behind those lines?

Present to your public the "new you."
Do you think that they’ll buy it?
You’ve changed colors so many times
We hardly recognize you.

What do you say when they ask you what you think?
What do you do when it’s time to take a stand?
Your politics are ever-changing.
Who says the clothes don’t make the man?

Put on your best disguise tonight.
Peruse the scene with watchful eyes.
If you’re careful they’ll never know you.
Who sees the emptiness inside that mind?

What do you say when they ask you what you think?
What do you do when it’s time to take a stand?
Your attitudes are always changing.
Who says that clothes don’t make the man?

Present to your public the "new you."
Don’t you know that they’ll love it?
You’ve changed colors so many times
We barely recognize you.

What do you say when they ask you what you think?
What do you do when it’s time to take a stand?
Your point-of-view is always changing.
Who says the clothes don’t make the man?

Your platitudes are never changing.
Who says that clothes don’t make the man?
