Effigy (i'm Not An) Lyrics - With Sympathy - Ministry

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 what's the first thing i see 

but them burning pictures of my head to toe, hey! 

i'm 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 what's the first thing i see 

but them burning pictures of me in my face, hey!

i'm 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! 

i'm not an effigy 

i'm not angry 

i'm not an effigy... hey! 

Photos 

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 they've been striking at me 

since the middle of last night, hey! 

i'm not an effigy
