NEW TEST LEPER R.E.M
D A G A D A G
I can't say that I love Jesus, that would be a hollow claim
D A G A D A G
He did make some observations, & I'm quoting them today
D A G A D A G
"Judge not, lest ye be judged", what a beautiful refrain
D A G A D A G
The studio audience disagrees, have his lambs all gone astray
A B C# D
A G A B C# D
Call me a leper, ah-ha-ha
A G A B C# D
Call me a leper, ah-ha-ha
A G A B C# D A G
Call me a leper, ah-ha-ha
"You are lost & disillusioned", what and awful thing to say
I know this show doesn't matter, it means nothing to me
I thought I might help them understand, but what an ugly thing to see
"I am not an animal", subtitled under the screen
Chorus
---- Bm D G Bm D G A
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
The talk-show host was index-carded, all organised and blank
The other guests were scared and hardened, what a sad parade
A G A B C# D
What a sad parade
Chorus
