The Emperor's got no clothes on No clothes? That can't be he's the Emperor Take that child away Don't let the people hear the words he has to say One small voice Speaking out in honesty Silenced, but not for long One small voice Speaking with the values we were taught as children So you walk away and say, Isn't he divine? Don't those clothes look fine on the Emperor? And as you take your leave, you wonder why you're feeling So I'll-at-ease don't you know? Lies take your soul You can't hide from yourself Lies take their toll on you And everyone else One small voice speaking out in honesty Silenced, but not for long One small voice speaking with the values we were taught as children Tell the truth You can change the world But you'd better be strong The Emperor's got no clothes on, no clothes He doesn't want to know what goes on, though everyone knows The Emperor's got no clothes on The Emperor's got no clothes on One small voice can change the world But you'd better be strong
