(Bolan, Snake)
Is there a problem ? The laugh of the rich man
Has got you crying poor
Are you as heavy as hell in a handbag
Or just a virgin whore ?
If the weight of the world is on your shoulders
Then carry it for a day
Do you try for peace or peace of mine;
Is reality in the way ?
Enter the martyr out through the in door
The savior has arrived ?
Is all your anger force of habit
And keeping you alive ?
An empty shotgun shooting your mouth off
Somethingіs on your mind
The cheap messiah of persecution
Is alive and doing fine
Chorus
I won't leave if you stay, I don't buy what you say
If you're a new God let me see a miracle
I won't leave if you stay, I don't buy what you say
I can't say that you're a fool, but if you're a new God let me see a miracle.
Has got you crying poor
Are you as heavy as hell in a handbag
Or just a virgin whore ?
If the weight of the world is on your shoulders
Then carry it for a day
Do you try for peace or peace of mine;
Is reality in the way ?
The savior has arrived ?
Is all your anger force of habit
And keeping you alive ?
An empty shotgun shooting your mouth off
Somethingіs on your mind
The cheap messiah of persecution
Is alive and doing fine
I won't leave if you stay, I don't buy what you say
If you're a new God let me see a miracle
I won't leave if you stay, I don't buy what you say
I can't say that you're a fool, but if you're a new God let me see a miracle.

Don't really have anything to back this up but to me this song feels like a rant against the big Televangelist preachers that were becoming all the rage in the early/mid 90s.
