New Age Messiah Lyrics

Artist(Band):Edguy



(instrumental)



Countless pointing fingers

A nameless crowd too swol to analyse

Takes a rise out of the stranger

Don't know where he's come from

Bumfuck 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,

And they knew they have 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

Here 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

Till then you know that you are to obey me





Pardon me

raise a graven image

i`m the new massaih for the world

you can`t see the splender of my nimbus

but i`m the new massiah for the world 2x



(solo)



ooh,oooh,oohohhhh



Gluttony and extasy, 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 fucking me, who the fucking fuck is Jesus

motherfucking new messiah

for the fucking world :)





Pardon me

raise a graven image

i`m the new massiah for the world

you can`t see the splender of my nimbus

but i`m the new massiah for the world

i`m the new massiah for the blind

for the blind
