You are the only person I know
But I take you round to people who are on the go
Well you took me to a picture show
And whats the first thing I see
But them burning pictures of my head to toe, hey!
Im not an effigy, no, no!
I asked you if you would be mad
If I packed my things and moved away to faraway land
Well I packed my things and I moved to this place
And whats the first thing I see
But them burning pictures of me in my face, hey!
Im not an effigy, no, no!
Well I moved back from this faraway land
Walked right into a room with me mum and me dad
Well I saw my picture hanging on the wall
They tried to rip it and burn it
But it just withstood it all and I said hey!
Im not an effigy
Im not angry
Im not an effigy... hey!
Well walking around this stinking town
I look up at the buildings and they get me down
Well I look to my left and then I look to my right
And then I realize theyve been striking at me
Since the middle of last night, hey!
Im not an effigy
