Cult Leader Lyrics

I don’t carry in my pocket a piece of paper with my name and number printed on it

Maybe I should or maybe it’s good

We don’t need to fall in love right this minute we’re just talking

I woke up early in the morning

The sun was shining in the sky on the town that i was born in

Back before these vigilantes told the cops that Jesus died and left them California

It’s been so long since I’ve been home

Even though three years ago

A lawyer called and said you’ve got one of your own

What good is some one’s shelter if one shelters there alone

All the way up from Laguna through Santa Cruz to Petaluma

I imagined all my friends and I could run away

But they don’t feel you trick or treater when your costume is cult leader

Your wide eyed brides all vandalized my cemetery stones

I know there’s places we can’t go

I never asked to be followed

As if this crazy message was the love we’ve never shown

What good is some one’s shelter if one shelters there alone

I don’t carry in my pocket a piece of paper with my name and number printed on it

Maybe I should or maybe it’s good

We don’t need to fall in love right this minute we’re just talking
