Lyrics
Surface
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's a mental philosophy... what made you do it.
Why do you call out your riots without surfacing your message?
Why would you let yourself get run around by your...
[Chorus:]
I give to you your leader, I give to you your leader.
It's a mental philosophy, trust me we'll adapt in time.
But we don't need a leader, but we don't need a leader...
Trust me you need someone like me to pacify your weak and simple minds.
Now what son, questioning me?
I got you bent over the president's knee,
With his lobbyists, his conglomerates
and his cabinets filled with ageist prejudice.
I think it's time to take it back to reform run away and break away from the norm.
You wanna know why I'm so fucking pissed off?
Did you read the homeless list off? (Did you?)
The hopeless list off?
Why can't you see what you're fearing is not me?
Why can't you see it's inevitable?
Why can't you see what you're fearing is not me?
Why can't you see that it's tearing you away?
Why do you call out your riots, without surfacing your message?
Why would you let yourself get run around by your...
[Chorus]
But we don't need a leader
We don't need a leader... we don't need you!
