Effigy - Hate Dept.

You are the only person I know

I keep you round the people that are on the go

Well, you took me to a picture show

The first thing I see is them burning pictures of me, head to toe

I’m not an effigy

Oh, no

I asked you if you would be mad

If I packed my bags and moved away to faraway lands

I packed my bags, moved to this place

The first thing I see is them burning pictures of me and my face

I’m not an effigy

I’m not an effigy

When I came back from this faraway land

I walked into a room with my mom and my dad

I saw my picture hanging on the wall

They tried to rip it and burn it but it just withstood it all

Ooh, I’m not an effigy

I’m not angry

I’m not angry

I’m not an effigy

Walking around in this stupid town

Look up at the buildings and they bring me down

I look to the left and I look to the right

I realize you’ll be striking at me my whole life

I’m not an effigy

No, no

I’m not an effigy

Oh, no
