Edguy - New Age Messiah lyrics

Countless pointing fingers A nameless crowd too swollen to an*lyse Takes a rise out of the stranger Don't know where he's come from Bumf** raises birds of paradise They surmise - very wise One night they witnessed How he lit his backdoor winds Fire turned the night into day And they prayed, fell on their knees And turned their glances off his face, They know they've been chosen to obey Pardon me Raise a graven image I'm the new messiah for the world You can't see the splendor of my nimbus But I'm the new messiah for the world For the blind The word shall spread like wildfire You got a new messiah holding sway Delightful game Don't you give away: I'm no redeemer But bring me grapes and diamonds right away And a maid to lay... One day oblivion will swallow up my fame The common run of mankind will forget my name Forget my name Like a phoenix rising someone else is gonna reign 'Til then you know that you are to obey me Pardon me... Gluttony and ecstasy, there's velvet on my dais Lions, ladies, rotaries they never spare with praise A million pointing fingers Have turned to clapping hands Now I'm off to Betty Ford, See you in hell my friends Pardon f**ing me, who the f**ing f** is Jesus Motherf**ing new messiah For the f**ing world ;) Pardon me...
