Let's say you're at a pie contest, let's say that you're the judge |
|
And there's lemon, lime and watermelon rind, |
|
And one that looks like fudge |
|
You can't tell which pie you like the best |
|
If you only eat the crust |
|
In order to complete the test a bite of filling is a must |
|
(a bite of filling is a must) |
|
Chorus: |
|
Inside, inside, that's the most important part |
|
Inside, inside, that's the place you've got to start |
|
Inside, inside, that's where you'll find the heart of the matter |
|
Let's say you're at a birthday party |
|
And let's say you've just turned eight |
|
And there are presents everywhere and all of them look great |
|
You can't tell which one's your favorite |
|
By just looking at the bow |
|
To pick one out from all the rest unwrap each present, |
|
Then you'll know |
|
(unwrap each present then you'll know) |
|
Chorus |
|
Children are the very best, each one a joy and pride |
|
Just how we know, i bet you guessed: |
|
We took the time to look... |
|
(inside!) |
|
Chorus |
|
Let's say you're at a library |
|
And there's stacks and stack of books |
|
There's even stacks on top of stacks everywhere you look |
|
There are stories about mystery and sports and famous lovers |
|
To pick one out from all the rest |
|
You've got to open up the covers |
|
(you've got to open up the covers!) |
|
Chorus |
