You, you  knock upon my door; To show me something more;

To spread the written word unto me; Hi won’t you come in for tea;

There’s more than what you see; My world is just a little different than yours;

My mind is open wide; Accepting all the time;

I’ll hear you out, but then you’ll listen to me;

Your word is not my way, I haven’t gone astray;

I see my world through different eyes, yeah;

Chorus:

(Were) The other people; (Shine) The other People;

(Speak)The other people; (Know)

(Were) The other people; (Shine) The other People;

(Speak)The other people; (Know)

You go knocking door to door; A salesman for your lord;

A hunter on the prowl for lost sheep; Yeah, collecting for your sins;

Your lord to let you in, you got your book in hand to teach me;

Well, your book is not the facts; Just stories from the past;

You say the greatest story ever told;

I listen to your words, they seem to me absurd;

Conform  and see the true and one way;

Chorus:

Bridge:

(Were) The other people; (Shine) The other People;

(Speak)The other people; (Know)

Don’t come walking up to me, tell me what to believe;

To show me how my path has gone astray;

Yeah, your story’s not my own, I walk a different road;

Contentment is the placement of my soul;

Don’t tell me what to do, I owe nothing to you;

My peace comes from within, this I know;

Yeah, if I may kindly say, please step out of my way;

I bid you peace and Namaste here;

Chorus;
