Heir Apparent - Decorated lyrics

[Written by Mike Jackson and Steve Benito] [Copyright 1988 Richard Cheese Music-ASCAP] Hero, Warrior Sit behind the lines and make the call Leader, Believer A vestal three-piece high above it all But until you've walked the miles With the people that you lead You can't understand their pain When the common people bleed Fuhrer, Big Brother Victimize the weak and make us strong Teacher, Savior Sanctify your answers, right or wrong But until you've walked the miles With the people that you lead You can't understand their pain When the common people bleed --You should be decorated Adorned by scarlet bars A celebrated General To brandish blackened stars --You should be decorated Your ribbons frayed and torn Upon your paper pedestal For the children to adorn --You should be decorated Leader, Believer Victimize the weak and make us strong Teacher, Savior Sanctify your answers, right or wrong But until you've walked the miles With the people that you lead You can't understand their pain When the common people bleed --You should be decorated
