Letra de la canción
Been here before a long time ago
But this time I wear no sandals
Ages past I gave all you people food and water
Three feet tall, so very small, I'm no trouble
I bring you thunder, lightning, sun and the rain
For all the people in the land
A message of love
I bring you from up above
All good children gather around
Come join your hands and sing along
They call me mad the swine
I guess I'm mad the swine
I've come to save you, save you
Mad the swine
Mad the swine
So all you people gather around
Hold out your hands and praise the Lord
I'll walk upon the water just as before
I'll help the meek and the mild
And the lepers and the blind
And all the creatures great and small
Let me take you to the river without a ford
Oh and then one day you'll realise
You're all the same within his eyes
That's all I've come to say just like before
They call me mad the swine
Mad the swine
I've come to save you, save you
Mad the swine
Mad the swine
So all you people gather around
Hold out your hands and praise the Lord
Ooh
Fall now
All you people gather around
Hold out your hands and praise the Lord
Don't ever fail me
Mad the swine
Mad the swine
I've come to save you, save you, fall now
Mad the swine
Mad the swine
So all you people gather around
Hold out your hands and praise the Lord
Hands and praise the Lord
Praise the Lord
Get down on my knees and praise the Lord
