leon russell - magic mirror lyrics
i’m standing by the highway
suitcase by my side
there’s no place i want to go
i just thought i’d catch a ride
many people look my way
and many p-ss me by
in moments of reflection
i wonder why
to the thieves i am a bandit
the mothers think i’m a son
to the preachers i’m a sinner
lord i’m not the only one
to the sad ones i’m unhappy
to the losers i’m a fool
to the students i’m a teacher
with the teachers i’m in school
to the hobos i’m imprisoned by everything i own
to the soldier i’m just someone else who’s dying to go home
the general sees a number, a politician’s tool
to my friends i’m just an equal in this whirlpool
magic mirror won’t you tell me please
do i find myself in anyone i see?
magic mirror if we only could
try to see ourselves as others would
to policeman i’m suspicious it’s in the way i look
i’m just another character to fingerprint and book
to the censors i’m p-rnography with no redeeming grace
to hooker i’m a customer without a face
the sellers think i’m merchandise, they’ll help me for a song
the left ones think i’m right,
the right ones think i’m wrong
and many people look my way
and many p-ss me by
and in my quiet reflection i wonder why
magic mirror won’t you tell me please
do i see myself in anyone i meet?
magic mirror if we only could
try to see ourselves as others would
