Version 1 of the lyrics

1  Perhaps, I'll never show this world all I could be   Perhaps I'll never show this world all I could be 1
2  I just can't sing to any man the song he wants to hear   I just can't sing to any man the                            2
1  song he wants to hear1
  And I know that some won't like me  And I know that some won't like me
  Others try to be my friend  Others try to be my friend
3  But I'm all of me and that's all that I am   But I'm all of me, and that's all that I am 3
      
2  Chorus:2
  And if life is for the living  And if life is for the living
  Then why can't men be real  Then why can't men be real
4  'Stead of hidin' in their costumes?   'Stead of hidin' in their costumes 4
5  Forgettin' how to                             feel   Forgettin' how to feel, forgettin' how to feel 5
1  Forgettin' how to feel   1
      
6  We still live in a time when manners cover what is real   We still live in a time when                                 6
7  There's a basic fact of life that the times cannot conceal   manners cover what is real                                          7
3  There's a basic fact of life that3
4  the times cannot conceal4
  That if some are masqueraders  That if some are masqueraders
  Others live in their facade  Others live in their facade
8  But I'm what I am, I cannot be what I am not   But I'm what I am                                  8
5  I cannot be what I am not5
      
9  And if life is for the living   Chorus                                 9
2  Then why can't men be real   2
3  'Stead of hidin' in their costumes?   3
4  Forgettin' how to feel   4
5  Forgettin' how to feel   5
      
  I may be too honest and offend those who pretend  I may be too honest and offend those who pretend
10  I don't claim I'm always right, that I'm everybody's friend   I don't claim I'm always right,                                 10
6  that I'm ev'rybody's friend6
  Perhaps for them it's easier to be what they are not  Perhaps for them it's easier to be what they are not
11  But I'm what I am                                          But I'm what I am, and I just can't play that part 11
6  And I just can't play that part   6
      
12  And if life is for the living   Chorus                                 12
7  Then why can't men be real   7
8  'Stead of hidin' in their costumes?   8
9  Forgettin' how to feel   9
10  Forgettin' how to feel   10
