REM lyrics : "New Test Leper"

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?


Call me a leper
Call me a leper

Call me a leper

'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
What an ugly thing to see

'I am not an animal'
Subtitled under the screen


Call me a leper
Call me a leper
Call me a leper


When I tried to tell my story
They cut me off to take a break

I sat silent 5 commercials
I had nothing left to say


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

Call me a leper

Call me a leper
Call me a leper
