Michael Stipe - New Test Leper Lyrics
[verse 1]I can't say that I love JesusThat would be a hollow claimHe did make some observationsAnd I'm quoting them today"Judge not lest ye be judged"What a beautiful refrainThe studio audience disagreesHave his lambs all gone astray?[chorus](You) Call me a leper - Hey(You) Call me a leper - HeyCall me a leper - Hey[verse 2]"You are lost and disillusioned!"What an awful thing to sayI know this show doesn't flatterIt means nothing to meI thought I might help them understandBut what an ugly thing to see"I am not an animal"Subtitled under the screen[chorus][bridge]Oh, Holy nightOh, Holy nightOhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhOhhhh Holy nightHoly night[verse 3]When I tried to tell my storyThey cut me off to take a breakI sat silent 5 commercialsI had nothing left to sayThe talk show host was index-cardedAll organized and blankThe other guests were scared and hardenedWhat a sad paradeWhat a sad parade[chorus]
