SYMPATHY FOR THE HUMAN

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.

Ladies and gentlemen, hobos and tramps,

Cross-eyed mosquitoes and bowlegged ants;

I'm here before you to stand behind you

To tell you something I know nothing about...

Next Thursday, which is Good Friday

There's a women's meeting for men only.

Free admission, pay at the door,

Pull up a chair and sit on the floor.

It's a long crawl back to the garden

So get me off my hands and knees

'Cause the church keeps spittin' me out

Now we all know where they're comin' from...

We just don't know where they're goin'.

I am a Christian; I am a Buddha;

Hari Krishna, I am a Jew.

I am Satan, have Zen within me;

I have Jesus. I am human.

We got the same guy every time

In a brand new clever disguise

So before you go and make up your mind...

If Christ came knocking on your door,

Dressed up like the devil, would ya let him in?

Would ya let him in,

Would ya let him in,

Would ya let him in?

I am a Christian; I am a Buddha;

Hari Krishna, I am a Jew.

I am Satan, have Zen within me;

I have Jesus, I am human.

I am Hindu, I am Sheikh;

I am Muslim, I'm an Atheist.

I have Satan, I am Christian;

I am Buddha, I am human, human, I am human

I hope this ain't the wrong direction

'Cause it all feels exactly the same

And it's gonna getcha where you're going

So enjoy the ride and don't get hooked;

They're all the same temptations.

I am a Christian; I am a Buddha;

Hari Krishna, I am a Jew.

I am Satan, have Zen within me;

I have Jesus, I am human.

I am Hindu, I am Sheikh;

I am Muslim, I'm an Atheist.

I have Satan, I am Christian;

I am Buddha, I am human, human, I am human

I am human, human, human, human.
