Soul Asylum - Fearless Leader lyrics

Jesus was a hippie, peace and love was all he was about That's why they k**ed him, cause that sh*t's something people can't figure out Now some folks who worship him are the ones who would have cheered at the crucifixion They got no conviction it doesn't matter if the man was fact or fiction Nixon was a liar it's the one thing believed to be true But tricky dick was not a crook whatever that means, whatever presidents do Money can't buy you children and nothing can bring them back to you We all make mistakes we all need someone to look up to But who're you gonna call your fearless leader Who's gonna put your fears to bed But heroes will never let you down just as long as they're dead Satan is a feeling, deviance it lurks in everyone Guilty pleasures, mischievous behavior can be fun No one made you do it, nobody but yourself to blame It's always at your door and trouble is it's name But who're you gonna call your fearless leader Who's gonna put your fears to bed Sometimes you gotta pick and choose Sometimes no matter what you lose Divine was a woman whos' private parts said she was a man Those were his private parts the parts that he could never understand But she was an actress she could be anything that she wanted Her reality was the very thing that she flaunted But who're you gonna call your fearless leader Who's gonna put your fears to bed But heroes will never let you down just as long as they're dead But who're you gonna call your fearless leader When you run from fear you leave yourself behind You can't dump your fears on someone else Cause it's all in your mind
