You Can't Judge a Book by the Cover - John Wetton, Richard Palmer-James

You can’t judge an apple by looking at the tree

You can’t judge honey by looking at the bee

You can’t judge a daughter by looking at the mother

You can’t judge a book by looking at the cover

Can’t you see

Well how you’ll misjudge me?

I look like a father

Baby I’m a lover

You can’t judge a book by looking at the cover, no

You can’t judge sugar by looking at the cane

You can’t judge a woman by looking at the man

You can’t judge a man by looking at his brother

You can’t judge a book by looking at the cover

Can’t you see

Well how you’ll misjudge me?

I look like a father

Baby I’m a lover

You can’t judge a book by looking at the cover, no

You can’t judge a fish by looking at the pond

You can’t judge a wizard by looking at his wand

You can’t judge one by looking at the other

You can’t judge a book by looking at the cover

Can’t you see

Well how you’ll misjudge me?

I look like a father

Baby I’m a lover

You can’t judge a book by looking at the cover, no
