Lyrics
And now you're searching for that new messiah
It's your greatest passion
To set 'em up and knock 'em down
Put him on a pedistal, idolitrary
And it's regularly
It all yours to their envy
'Cause you hold a higher key of senses
They are drawn like magnets
To a genius it's confirmed
(Now set him up and knock him down)
And your taste is so accountable
(But this is no great loss)
And sharing never was a choice
(He's burning on the cross)
Which gives your credit and a voice
Here to relay your beautiful ideals vicariously through them
And when he died too many were sympathetic
They are all pathetic
And you dethrone your king
Without listening, without ever listening
And Jesus Christ is realized
As he burns on your cross
This is no great loss
Another one will come
The wait is short, the search is brief
You find another faith
Another Clark Kent
Another Superman
Flashing in the pan
And your taste is so accountable
(But this is no great loss)
And sharing never was a choice
(He's burning on your cross)
Which gives you credit and a voice
Only here to relay your beautiful ideals vicariously through them
And now your searching for that new messiah
Is your greatest passion
It's the latest fashion
