Take Me To Your Leader
I see you're Right
Her Path is Light
I can hardly wait to meet Her
Hurry, please ~ Take Me to your Leader
I've lived life all wrong
To nothing, to no one I belong
I really, really need Her
Please, please ~ Take Me to your Leader
I've turned to crime
Bathed in mud and slime
I'd do anything to see Her
So, please ~ Take Me to your Leader ...
...Not so fast. Please listen here
You'll wait your turn, darling dear
A thousand others want to meet Her
Crying: Hurry, please ~ Take Me to your Leader
Just like you, they're sinners too
Bungled life, through and through
So desperately do they need Her
Their voices begging ~ Take Me to your Leader
They've robbed and ransacked city and village
Murdered and kidnaped, even pillaged
They'll do anything just to see Her
Screaming ~ Take Me to your Leader ...
"...I guess I see," I managed, sore abashed
My hopes, my dreams, thoroughly dashed--
Plunged the blade in my heart so deep
~ No Leader my soul to mourn or weep
