The Leper
Words, shallow words
and it all amounts to nothing
sounds, it just sounds, a little phony
yeah, its true I was the leper
yeah, its true I was the lad
yeah its true I was the better
and the bad
waiting for the part someone with a heart
poised and pissed and flowered
standing on the brink
trying not to think
I haven't even showered
Yes, I am going to
yeah, its true I was the leper
yeah, its true I was the lad
yeah its true I was the better
and the bad
And the world keeps settling
in my way, in my way
damn it all, damn it all
And the world keeps settling
damn it all, damn it all
Christ what a life
and the most of it forgotten
listen to this
and the rest is pretty rotten
yeah, its true I was the leper
yeah, its true I was the lad
yeah its true I was the better
and the bad
and it all amounts to nothing
sounds, it just sounds, a little phony
yeah, its true I was the leper
yeah, its true I was the lad
yeah its true I was the better
and the bad
waiting for the part someone with a heart
poised and pissed and flowered
standing on the brink
trying not to think
I haven't even showered
Yes, I am going to
yeah, its true I was the leper
yeah, its true I was the lad
yeah its true I was the better
and the bad
And the world keeps settling
in my way, in my way
damn it all, damn it all
And the world keeps settling
damn it all, damn it all
Christ what a life
and the most of it forgotten
listen to this
and the rest is pretty rotten
yeah, its true I was the leper
yeah, its true I was the lad
yeah its true I was the better
and the bad
