Lift up your head, wash off your mascara
Here, take my kleenex, wipe that lipstick away
Show me your face, clean as the mornin
I know things were bad, but now they're ok
Suddenly seymour is standing beside you
You don't need no makeup, don't have to pretend
Suddenly seymour is here to provide you
Sweet understanding, seymour's your friend
Nobody ever treated me kindly
Daddy left early, mama was poor
I'd meet a man and i'd follow him blindly
He'd snap his fingers at me, i'd say sure
Suddenly seymour, he purified me
Suddenly seymour showed me i can
Learn how to be more the girl that's inside me
With sweet understanding
With sweet understanding
With sweet understanding
Seymour's my maaah-aaaah-aaaaah-aaan!
