Candidate Lyrics

by Bad Religion

As I walk along this road paved with human kindness
I can never forget the price you've paid
I'm an actor on a role an artificial virus
I'm your daddy I'm your disgrace

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e118449-bad_religion~candidate_lyrics.html ]
I saw kid just move along we don't want it - don't need it
Your politics just breed despair
I salute an empty flag of ancient tribalism and trust me nobody cares

For I am your candidate
I am bloody lips and makeup
I'm your caliphate opioids and mutilation
A celebrity and my name is competition
I've come to bear your pain and I can make it go away, I'll make it go away, I'll make it go away ...

Believers dupes and clowns I want you all to gather 'round
To glorify ignorance and fear
I dispense misinformation to a post-truth generation my darlings don'd shed a tear

For I am your candidate
I am bloody lips and makeup
I'm your caliphate opiods and revelation
An hermaphrodie in restrooms and service stations
I truly feel your pain and I can make it go away, I'll make it go away, I'll make it go away ...
