[Verse 1]
There's the image of a man who commands a high opinion
But he hides his hatred with a sheepish grin
And beside him, flanking closely, are the boisterous hollow masses
Who lap up whatever trickles in
This intercourse of nature, this vulgar social pastime
Reflects the lowest mark of our progress
And the few who ride peripheral maintain subtle advantage
Fighting hard to abstain and redress
[Pre-Chorus]
Do you know your place
In the big charade?
Are you more than they?
[Chorus]
Leaders and followers
Leaders and followers
Leaders and followers
Leaders and followers
[Bridge]
Recognition by proximity and a brand new face
Just a smidgen of success pie and a pinch of social grace
You can play with the big boys
Or you can tell them what to do
But sooner or later, there's another one like you
There's the image of a man who commands a high opinion
But he hides his hatred with a sheepish grin
And beside him, flanking closely, are the boisterous hollow masses
Who lap up whatever trickles in
This intercourse of nature, this vulgar social pastime
Reflects the lowest mark of our progress
And the few who ride peripheral maintain subtle advantage
Fighting hard to abstain and redress
[Pre-Chorus]
Do you know your place
In the big charade?
Are you more than they?
[Chorus]
Leaders and followers
Leaders and followers
Leaders and followers
Leaders and followers
[Bridge]
Recognition by proximity and a brand new face
Just a smidgen of success pie and a pinch of social grace
You can play with the big boys
Or you can tell them what to do
But sooner or later, there's another one like you
