Bill Withers — Green Grass

[Verse 1] Looking out at the people looking in Feeling good must be some kind of sin Looking in at the people looking out Feeling guilty - scared to move about Looking up at the people looking down Taking tranquilizers by the pound Looking down at the people looking up Getting mad ‘cause they can't get enough [Chorus] Ah, but you know that green grass on the other side Is just an illusion We all have our own confusion We all have our own confusion [Verse 2] Rich people watching the people poor Trying to figure out how to get some more Poor people watching people rich You know, they call them dirty you-know-which Ugly people watching the people pretty Say they can't get down to the nitty-gritty Pretty people watching people ugly Say I sure couldn't stand you to kiss and hug me [Chorus] Ah, but you know that green grass on the other side Is just an illusion We all have our own confusion We all have our own confusion
