"The Invisible Man" lyrics

"The Invisible Man"

Everywhere he goes
And everything he does (Does)
Everything proves to him
That he don't exist for them
They don't understand
What the invisible man
Understands

Every day he tries
And every night he dies (Dies)
Lookin' for someone like him
Someone who don't walk by him
Someone who knows
What the invisible man
Understands

He don't sell clothes
He don't sell cars
Never famous, and
No one knows

Sticks and stones can't hurt him
You can dance on his grave when he's gone
But the invisible man will still touch your hands
Till you understand what he wants

Oh, look out

Do you think you know him?
Do you think that you know him? (Him)
Ah, the lies and deceit you give
The curses and cries you give
Do you understand
What the invisible man
Understands?

Invisible man, do you understand
Maybe it is you?
Invisible man, do you understand
Maybe it is you?
Maybe it is you?
Maybe it is you?
Maybe it is you?
Maybe it is you?

Do you think you understand?
Do you think you understand?
