Chorus
Lep.. Lep... Leper. Lep... Lep.. Leper
Lep.. Lep... Leper. Lep... Lep.. Leper
Verse 1
Skin like crocodiles,
Tortured, twisted smiles.
Constantly reviles
Morbidly beguiles.
Chorus
Verse 2
Play it as a game.
Parasitic fame.
Beauty lies in shame.
Pariah all the same.
Bridge
Grotesque freaks for all to see
A mirror of Man’s indignity
Brother lepers can’t you see
Lepers — you and me.
Chorus
Verse 3
Molakai’s Retreat.
In this savage heat.
Knotted hands and feet.
Crawling through the Street.
Chorus
Verse 4
I’ve been here before.
Oozing bloody sores.
Hide in darkened doors.
Die — just a Little bit more.

Interlude

Chorus
Verse 5
Fear the leper’s fears.
Cry the leper’s tears.
After all these years.
Lepers always here.
Chorus
Verse 6
Here — Though we can’t see.
How we came to be.
Fearing
you and me.
And our leprosy.
Bridge
Grotesque freaks for all to see
A mirror of Man’s indignity
Brother lepers can’t you see
Lepers — you and me.
