LyricMeaning

New Test Leper
Michael Stipe

[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]

(You) Call me a leper - Hey

(You) Call me a leper - Hey

Call me a leper - Hey


[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 ugly thing to see

I am not an animal

Subtitled under the screen


[chorus]


[bridge]

Oh, Holy night

Oh, Holy night

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Ohhhh Holy night

Holy night


[verse 3]

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 organized and blank

The other guests were scared and hardened

What a sad parade


What a sad parade


[chorus]
