Story behind the song
A message of universal application to the many groups around the world who are shunned, abused, hated, attacked, simply because they are regarded by the majority as being 'different' (and, therefore, inferior), whether that difference is because of the colour of their skin, their ethnicity, their religion, their lifestyle, their sexual orientation, or a myriad of other reasons.
The theme of 'DON'T JUDGE', is loud and clear, 'don't judge a book by its cover, forget the labels, it's what's inside that counts'....
Lyrics
So many ways of separation
Labels and tags your designation
Boxes to tick on every form
Colours and creeds classification
Het'ro or gay, orientation?
Measuring up to someone's 'norm'
What does it matter?
Everyone's a star
Just let them shine the way they are.
Don't judge the contents by the cover
Don't judge the person by the shell
If you look closer you'll discover
There's so much more inside as well.
Don't judge casting aspersions
Don't judge making assertions
Don't judge you have no right
Don't judge stereotyping
Don't judge forever sniping
Don't judge live side by side
Follow the rules and regulations
Do as they say, no deviations
Live in the box, one size fits all
Why all the pressure?
Different is no crime
This world of prejudice is blind
Don't judge the contents by the cover
Don't judge the person from the shell
If you look closer you'll discover
There's so much more inside as well
We're all entitled to our way of life
Live and let live, don't criticise
Don't judge the contents by the cover
Don't judge the person from the shell
If you look closer you'll discover
There's so much more inside as well
Don't judge casting aspersions
Don't judge making assertions
Don't judge you have no right
Don't judge stereotyping
Don't judge forever sniping
Don't judge live side by side
