Now, Mr. Doe, he does good deeds,
What a godly life he leads,
Helping everyone he meets,
Fighting all the bad he sees,
Living life at breakneck speed,
Looking out for folk in need,
Always hurry to their aid,
And there's another friend you've made.

Hey, big, important you,
I'm just thinking that you go too far in what you do,
'Cause it hangs on who you are.

You're always rushing around,
Always nowhere to be found,
Doing all the things you do as everyone is watching you,
Quick to share some common sense, as long as there's an audience,
Quick to speak or say a prayer, as long as there are people there.

Hey, big, important you,
I'm just thinking that you go too far in what you do,
'Cause it hangs on who you are.

All concerned with what you do,
What you think they think of you'
Putting up a real good show and hiding what is really you,
Hiding all the dirt inside, 'cause if they knew the things you hide,
You might find they step aside, 'cause being with you ain't dignified.

Hey, big, important you,
I'm just thinking that you go too far in what you do,
'Cause it hangs on who you are.

Hey, big, important you,
I'm just thinking that you go too far in what you do,
'Cause it hangs on who you are.
