All of those things that I wanted to say
Well, you can take those things and throw them all away
Because he who points the finger, really, only gets hung
That's why I don't wanna be a messiah, messiahs die young
All of those things that I wanted to be
Well you can take those things and throw them back at me
Because a he is only just as good as he who is the one
That's why I don't wanna be a messiah, messiahs die young
Why get in line if you don't want to wait?
They say that time is money, sell your boss today
And if you've never been to China, well, the slow boat leaves at one
That's why I don't wanna be a messiah, messiahs die young
I don't want to be a messiah, messiahs die
I don't want to be a messiah, I just want to have fun
Not die young, messiahs die young
They die young, messiahs die young
Messiahs die young, messiahs die young
Messiahs die young, messiahs
