r.e.m. - new test leper (live acoustic / seattle, wa / 4/19/1995) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i can’t say that i love jesus
that would be a hollow claim
he did make some observations
and i’m quoting them today
“judge not, lest ye be judged”
what a beautiful refrain
the studio audience disagrees
have his lambs all gone astray?

[chorus]
call me a leper
call me a leper
call me a leper

[verse 2]
“you are lost and disillusioned”
what an awful thing to say
i know this show doesn’t flatter
it means nothing to me
i thought i might help them understand
but what an awful thing to see
“i am not an animal”
subtitled under the screen

[chorus]
call me a lеper
call me a lepеr
call me a leper
[verse 3]
when i tried to tell my story
they cut me off to take a break
i sat silent five commercials
i had nothing left to say
the talk show host was index+carded
all organized and blank
the other guests were scared and hardened
what a sad parade
what a sad parade

[chorus]
call me a leper
call me a leper
call me a leper
