I've seen you in the pages of a magazine
I've seen you in full color on the TV screen
I've seen you in the eyes of a prostitute
I've seen you in the lives of the destitute
And I've had enough of your ugly face
I've taken all I can take
I've seen you in the White House
I've seen you in the ghetto
I've seen you in Belfast
I've seen you in Soweto
I've seen you in the churches
I've seen you in the bars
I've seen the seeds you've sown
And the ones you've scarred
I've seen you in the gulag
And in the freer West
But the one in the mirror
Is the one I know best
I've seen you in my backyard
I've seen you on the bus
We used to be best friends
But now I hate your guts!
