Candidate Songtext
von Bad Religion

As I walk along this road
Paved with human kindness
I can never forget the price you paid
I′m an actor on a role
An artificial virus
I'm your daddy, I′m your disgrace

I say kids just move along
You don't wan't it, don′t need it
Your politics just breed despair
I salute an empty flag of ancient tribalism
And trust me nobody cares


For I am your candidate
I am bloody lips and makeup
I′m your caliphate, opioids and mutilation
A celebrity and my name is competition
I've come to bear your pain
And I can make it go away
I′ll make it go away
I'll make it go away

Believers, dupes and clowns
I want you all to gather around
To glorify ignorance and fear
I dispense misinformation to a post-truth generation
My darlings don′t shed a tear

For I am your candidate
I am bloody lips and makeup
I'm your caliphate opiods and revelation
An hermaphrodite in restrooms and service stations
I truly feel your pain
And I can make it go away
I′ll make it go away
I'll make it go away
