Can't judge an album by one song
Can't judge a book by the names on the back
Can't judge a man for his wrongs
Or a woman for the beauty she lacks
Give back the gavel that you stole
from the good grip of God's hands
You were better as a criminal
begging for a second chance
Can't judge a movie by the talk
Can't judge a painting by the zeros on the tag
Can't judge a team by one loss
Or a country for the holes in their flag
Can't judge the future by the past
Can't judge a moment by the one before
Can't judge a beggar cause he asks
Or a rich man who won't give to the poor
