Magic Mirror

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 pass 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 pornography 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 pass 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
