Say that I'm a poor man Well I have always been Say that life's a bitch and don't go caving in Well I have got an angel she watches over me And guides my hands to glory And crushes hopes and dreams to be What's average to see And all that glitters in the sun I'll hold out for simplicity And the law of averages is none Cash can't buy the knowledge And knowledge wears the crown Mental ammunition to mow you fuckers down
What's this about religion I've got one all my own Cause my god's in the mirror Except when my angel's home Say that I'm a poor man But I have never been Not because of fortune But because I don't fit in You told me someone stole his dreams and sold me
