about

Take that plank from out your eye...

lyrics

You're a haircut
You're a haircut, not a personality
An opinion in a million
Full of noise not quality
I can hear you
I can hear you telling everyone you see
I would rather
I would rather if you kept away from me

Take that plank from out your eye and get away from me

There's no virtue
In that dirt you seem so keen to sling about
An agenda to offend
And fill the world with fear and doubt
You berate to educate
And think we listen if you shout
I'm not going to tolerate you
Or the shit you talk about

Take that plank from out your eye and get away from me

I know you think you're a prophet
Devil's advocate
Come off it
Everyone wants you to stop it
Always talking, never think

Take that plank from out your eye and get away from me
