MINISTRY - Effigy (I'M Not An) lyrics

rate me

you are the only person i know

but i take you round to people who are on the go

well you took me to a picture show

and what's the first thing i see

but them burning pictures of my head to toe, hey!

i'm not an effigy, no, no!

i asked you if you would be mad

if i packed my things and moved away to faraway land

well i packed my things and i moved to this place

and what's the first thing i see

but them burning pictures of me in my face, hey!

i'm not an effigy, no, no!

well i moved back from this faraway land

walked right into a room with me mum and me dad

well i saw my picture hanging on the wall

they tried to rip it and burn it

but it just withstood it all and i said hey!

i'm not an effigy

i'm not angry

i'm not an effigy... hey!

well walking around this stinking town

i look up at the buildings and they get me down

well i look to my left and then i look to my right

and then i realize they've been striking at me

since the middle of last night, hey!

i'm not an effigy
