[Verse 1]
When you first saw
You should've known
There was no more
Than what was shown
The way the flowers
Will bloom at night
The fancy thinkin'
That makes it right

[Chorus]
What you see is what I am
Take a look at the invisible man
Satisfaction cannot be guaranteed
When you don't know just what you see

[Verse 2]
From purple flowers
Shoot silver sparks
In solid air
They make their mark
Across the room
Before they fall
Through the eyes
Of antique dolls
[Chorus]
Take a look at what I am
You're looking through an invisible man
Satisfaction cannot be guaranteed
When you don't know just what you see

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
The dusty book
That no one reads
The pages torn
The letters read
Upon the cover
These words are penned
Please go away
Don't come again

[Chorus]
Oh, what you see is what I am
You're looking through an invisible man
Satisfaction cannot be guaranteed
When you don't know just what you see
So take a look at what I am
You're looking through an invisible man
Satisfaction cannot be guaranteed
When you don't know just what you see
So take a look at what I am
You're looking through an invisible man
Satisfaction cannot be guaranteed
When you don't know just what you see
