Petra - Chameleon lyrics

Words and music by Bob Hartman

You want the best of both worlds

You're not getting either

You seem content to ride the fence

When you know which side is greener

Some run hot, some run cold

Some run from their maker

Some run the risk of losing out

With lukewarm friends and fakers

Chameleon

You blend with your surroundings

Chameleon

Noone knows where you come from

Chameleon

You change with every situation

Compromising dedication

You compromise each word you say so innoffensively

You only want to hide behind your anonymity

You struggle for acceptance

And it takes you to extremes

The smile you hide your face behind

Is not all that it seems

Come out, come out

Come out from among them

Come out, come out

Come out and be free

There is no gray, no neutral ground

There's only black and white

And nothing in between the two

To turn a wrong into right

There is no time for your charade

You've got to make your stand

When salt has lost its savor

The world becomes so bland
