C                                                F 
   Did they always ask you why you had to act so different? 
   C 
So very different from all the other children 
G       F 
      What could you tell them? 
C 
  When they went off to try to 
                      F 
Criticize you and chastise you 
C 
Baptize you and then lobotomize you 
G                 F 
   Isn't it true, ooh ooh that special school 

G                    F 
  Turned you into a reverent fool 
G                    F 
  Tell papa and the reverend too 
G                    F 
  That they are ignorant and you disapprove 

C 
They would like to 
G              F 
Turn a subject into a citizen 
C 
They will make you 
                F 
A patient if you take their medicine 
G                    F 
  They sell you shit to make you sick 
G                           F 
  That shit I sell will make you well 
G 
  Take two of these and break the great Satan's spell 

C 
  You know it's an emergency 
                  F 
They call it a perverted dream 
C 
I call it an emerging scene 
  F         G 
I say, say, can't you see 
C 
  They came with their catechism 
                   F 
Calling it your condition 
C 
  I call that crass conditioning 
G     C              G 
  Oh, why ain't you listening? 

                     F 
Reveal your hidden heritage 
G                    F 
Collect your true inheritance 
G           F 
A veritable treasure chest opening 

C 
They would like to 
G              F 
  Turn a child into a Christian 
C 
I've been living without a God 
                            F                G 
And these Christians don't know what they're missing 

Am 
Visionary dreams 
Ripping through the seams 
     G                      C 
When we gathered around the fire 
    F 
The devious and weak 
     Am 
Make insidious schemes 
     G                      C 
They want to water down the fire 

         F 
Which is always burning 
         Am 
Which is always burning 
                G 
There's witches always burning 
C 
Oh! The fire! 

    Am 
You know the type of guy 
Who doesn't like the light 
      G                        C 
Don't want to stand beside the fire 
   Am 
He shackles up your feet 
Pushes you to your knees 
   G                       C 
Forbids you to receive the fire 

          F 
But it is always burning 
           Am 
We keep it always burning 
        G 
Keep it always burning 
C 
Fire! 


C 
Please, Believe me 
            G 
You gotta believe in a drum dream 
C 
Even if seeing the death of a dumb dream 
F 
  Makes a man mean 
C           G    C 
Mean, mean, real mean 

C   G    F           G        C 
    That what you've gotta be
