[Verse 1]
You hit the street, you feel 'em staring
You know they hate you, you can feel their eyes a-glarin'
Because you're different, because you're free
Because you're everything deep down they wish they could be

[Chorus]
You're lookin' back (They lookin' back)
They lookin' back (They lookin' back)
Too many people lookin' back
They lookin' back (They lookin' back)
They lookin' back (They lookin' back)
Too many people lookin' back

[Verse 2]
They watch the news, see young men dyin'
They watch them bleed and then they listen to them cryin'
And if they're normal, if they can see
They just reach out and change the channel on the TV

[Chorus]
They lookin' back (They lookin' back)
They lookin' back (They lookin' back)
Too many people lookin' back
They lookin' back (They lookin' back)
They lookin' back (They lookin' back)
Too many people lookin' back
Back back back back back back back
[Verse 3]
When they could vote and end the war
They're much too busy fittin' locks upon the back door
Give you a foxhole, a place to hide
'Cause when the war comes the cops'll be on their side, Lord

[Chorus]
They lookin' back (They lookin' back)
They lookin' back (They lookin' back)
Too many people lookin' back
They lookin' back (They lookin' back)
Well they lookin' back (They lookin' back)
Too many people lookin' back
Back back back back
They lookin' back (They lookin' back)
They lookin' back (They lookin' back)
Too many people lookin' back, now now
They lookin' back (They lookin' back)
They lookin' back (They lookin' back)
Too many people
Too many people
Too many people lookin' back
