《Emperor's New Clothes》的歌詞如下:
Verse 1:
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Just another beautiful day
Sun is shining bright
Everyone's out and about
Trying to keep up their head
Chorus:
But they don't see what I see
Two men in rags are they
Trying to sell them two suits
Oh emperor's new clothes
Verse 2:
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
It's a shame but it's true
Nobody can tell you why
You start to feel so alone
Everyone's after the line
Chorus:
But they don't see what I see
Two men in rags are they
Trying to sell them two suits
Oh emperor's new clothes
Bridge:
So you start to run and hide
Trying to keep up your pride
But in the end you realize
You were naked all the time
Chorus:
But they don't see what I see
Two men in rags are they
Trying to sell them two suits
Oh emperor's new clothes
Outro:
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh.
這是一首諷刺那些虛偽、自欺欺人的人的歌曲。歌詞中描述了人們為了掩飾自己的虛偽,不願意承認自己被騙的事實,最後才發現自己其實一直裸體。
