"Pay no attention to that woman behind the curtain"

Pay no attention to that woman behind the curtain,

I want you see what I only want you to see.

Pay no attention to that woman behind the curtain,

For that is the truth that I am trying to hide from

Myself. Pay no attention to that woman behind the

Curtain, for what you see is what you get, and

For what you get you may not like. Pay no

Attention to that woman behind the curtain, For

She has some things she needs to fix. Her attitude,

Her look, her size, her color. Pay no attention to that

Woman behind the curtain, she is not perfect, she flaws

Just as everyone else. Pay no attention to that woman

Behind the curtain, because even you have a hidden

Person behind the curtain. But will you let someone see

That person behind the curtain or will you too say,

“Pay no attention to that woman or man behind the curtain”?
