All you needed was somebody with a dream,   A fool to crucify or to put upon a pedestal.   Only dead fish float with the stream -   Compared with you I seem like an extra-terrestrial.      I'm not your Robin Hood or Peter Pan,   I won't play Jesus Christ - Santa Claus.   I'll never pass for a superman -   I'm just an effect trying to find a cause.      Tell me who am I, what am I and why am I here.      Is it because I'm flesh and blood   That creature comforts feel so good?   I give my body all it needs -   It sleeps and eats and shits and breeds.      And if I keep my feelings stum,   Hard luck - bibo ergo sum.   Just trying to do the best I can   Is a giant leap for this small man.      All you needed was somebody with a dream,   A fool to crucify or to put upon a pedestal.   Only dead fish float with the stream -   Compared with you I seem like an extra-terrestrial.      You say that life is a miracle -   I don't believe one word.   Forgive me for being so cynical -   From down here you all look absurd.      So are you happy now we all feel the same?   Martyrs to the cause - boredom level nearing terminal.   You're afraid to go against the grain,   Next to you I feel like a shining intellectual.      James T. Kirk - Albert Einstein,   Sitting safe aboard the Enterprise.   If you're out there send me a sign -   I need somebody to sympathise with.      Tell me who am I, what am I and why am I here.      Must I succumb to every urge -   First feast and fast (then binge and purge).   My spirit's strong - my flesh is weak,   I laugh and cry and scream and speak.      And sometimes when i feel confused,   I walk a path I did not choose.   Watch my life on video -   A private homemade horror show.      All you needed was somebody with a dream,   A fool to crucify or to put upon a pedestal.   Only dead fish float with the stream -   Compared with you I seem like an extra-terrestrial.      So are you happy now we all feel the same?   Martyrs to the cause - boredom level nearing terminal.   You're afraid to go against the grain,   Next to you I feel like a shining intellectual.      You say that life is a miracle -   I don't believe one word.   Forgive me for being so cynical -   From down here you all look absurd.
