Lyrics
I can't say that I love Jesus
I cannot claim to love Jesus
That would be a hollow claim
Such a claim would lack sincerity
He did make some observations
Jesus made some observations
And I'm quoting them today
The speaker is quoting those observations
"Judge not lest ye be judged"
Quoting the advice "Judge not lest ye be judged"
What a beautiful refrain
The phrase is described as a beautiful refrain
The studio audience disagrees
Despite the beauty, the studio audience disagrees
Have his limbs all gone astray?
Questioning if Jesus' teachings have been forgotten
Call me a leper
Repetition of being called a leper, an outcast
Call me a leper
-Call me a leper
-"You are lost and disillusioned"
Being labeled as lost and disillusioned
What an awful thing to say
Expressing disapproval of this characterization
I know this show doesn't flatter
The show does not represent or please the speaker
It means nothing to me
It holds no significance or value to the speaker
I thought I might help them understand
Attempting to help the audience understand
What an ugly thing to see
Describing the situation as ugly
"I am not an animal"
Rejecting the label of being an animal
Subtitled under the screen
Subtitle emphasizes rejection and defiance
Call me a leper
Repetition of being called a leper
Call me a leper
-Call me a leper
-When I tried to tell my story
Trying to share personal experiences on a talk show
They cut me off to take a break
Interrupted abruptly for a commercial break
I sat silent five commercials
Silently enduring five commercials
I had nothing left to say
Having nothing more to say after the interruption
The talk show host was index-carded
The talk show host follows a structured approach
All organized and blank
Guests are treated as organized and emotionless
The other guests were scared and hardened
Other guests are fearful and hardened
What a sad parade
Describing the overall atmosphere as a sad parade
What a sad parade
-Call me a leper
Repetition of being called a leper
Call me a leper
-Call me a leper
