leper all of a sudden i see you coming around, you think i've forgotten what it's like to be down and loose and free but it's never been me you'd choose to see because i'm a leper don't get too excited coming through my door you were here before but it's a bit too late might be your fate to find out you weren't so big at all because i'm a leper what can i help you with what do you want that you haven't got, can i get you something, yeah here's a tray let me know when you're leaving don't get too close because i'm a leper and it was you that cast me out, tried to instill doubt but i got too strong, you knew all along that i'd have to bolt so you cast me down to uncommon ground with the other lepers so now you've come to the colony did you ever think you'd be here like this feeling out of place with your normal face hiding so much fear it's ugliness to hear that you came to me to the colony, where you sent me to so long ago so tell me what you want cause you're looking gaunt... and you used to stare at me like i was some kind of leper... some kind of leper... like i was some kind of leper... so tell me who's the leper now.... words and music by joe herbert copyright 1999
