Leader of Men

Tell your friends not to think out loud

Until they swallow

Whisper things into my brain

Your voice sounds so hollow

I am not a leader of men

Since I prefer to follow

Do you think I could have a drink?

Since it's so hard to swallow

Yeah, so hard to swallow

Turn your television off

And I will sing a song

And if you suddenly have the urge

You can sing along

I touch your hand, touch your face

I think the fruit is rotten

Give me lessons on how to breathe

'Cause I think I've forgotten

Yeah, think I've forgotten

One day out to a cliff

That overlooks the water

I jumped in to save a girl

It was somebody's daughter

And now the ring that's on my hand

Was given to me by her

And to this day, we all sit around

And dream of ways to get higher

Yeah, to get much higher

Tell your friends not to think out loud

Until they swallow

Whisper things into my brain

Your voice sounds so hollow, yeah

I am not a leader of men

Since I prefer to follow

Do you think I could have a drink?

Since it's so hard to swallow

Yeah, so hard to swallow
