... A Stab In The Dark ...
It's not easy ...
not really easy being me
when you're stood before the world
and you're there for all to see,
When you're stood under the spotlight
and the people stare at you
when you're feeling full of miracles
but knowing what you have to do,
When you think your friends surround you
and you're feeling kinda' good
just watch that space behind you
when you feel misunderstood,
Cos' you'll always find there's someone
creeping up, on the attack
who will kiss you on the cheek
and then stab you in the back,
When they drag you off to someplace else
and you're stood before the boss
they'll judge and whip and scourge you
then nail you to a cross,
Where they shout and mock and jeer at you
and they pierce you with a spear
when your family's there below you
and you know your end is near,
And you call upon your Father
and you call upon the Host
then quiet repose besets you
and you give up the Holy Ghost,
Then they take you down, and tend to you
and they wrap you in a shroud
and they roll a rock before you
just to hide you from the crowd,
Where you disappear forever
and you walk right off the set
and they start a new religion
all because you were a threat.**
