Lyrics:

Let's say you're at a pie contest,
And let's say that you're the judge
And there's lemon, lime and watermelon rind,
And one that looks like fudge
You can't tell which pie you like the best
If you only eat the crust
In order to complete the test
A bite of filling is a must
(A bite of filling is a must)

Inside, inside
That's the most important part
Inside, inside
That's the place you've got to start
Inside, inside
That's where you'll find the heart of the matter

Let's say you're at a birthday party
And let's say you've just turned eight
And there are presents everywhere
And all of them look great
You can't tell which one's your favorite
By just looking at the bow
To pick one out from all the rest
Unwrap each present and then you'll know
(Unwrap each present and then you'll know)

Inside, inside
That's the most important part
Inside, inside
That's the place you've got to start
Inside, inside
That's where you'll find the heart of the matter

You know, children are the very best
Each one of joy and pride
Just how we know, I bet you guessed:
We took the time to look...
(Inside!)

Inside, inside
That's the most important part
Inside, inside
That's the place you've got to start
Inside, inside
That's where you'll find the heart of the matter

Let's say you're at a library
And there's stacks and stack of books
There's even stacks on top of stacks
Everywhere you look
There are stories about mystery
And sports and famous lovers
To pick one out from all the rest
You've got to open up the covers
(You've got to open up the covers!)

Inside, inside
That's the most important part
Inside, inside
That's the place you've got to start
Inside, inside
That's where you'll find the heart of the matter

Inside, inside
That's the most important part
Inside, inside
That's the place you've got to start
Inside, inside
That's where you'll find the heart
That's where you'll find the heart
That's where you'll find the heart...
Of the matter!
