[Verse 1]
See all the people in Afghanistan
Praying to their gods and living in the sand
Somebody's gonna have to set them free
Nobody hears the call or command

[Pre-Chorus]
But it's a long way to Harlem
And a long stretch to the king of Siam
And if you don't have a penny
Why should I give a damn?

[Chorus]
Ad Hominem
You think you're better than I am?
Ad Hominem
You think you're better than I am

[Verse 2]
See all the suckers in the handout line
Living on scraps and they don't have a dime
Waiting for endless charity
Devoid of any sense of posterity

[Pre-Chorus]
Well there's no Great Depression
And there's no Great Society
And only few go to heaven
All the rest are damned and free

[Chorus]
Ad Hominem
You think you're better than I am?
Ad Hominem
You think you're better than I am

[Verse 3]
I'm just a soft-cover version of a much harder tale
A walking resemblance of ruts in the trail
Is it possible to divide your ideas and beliefs
Ideas and beliefs
Ideas and beliefs from the people that you don't like?

[Chorus]
Ad Hominem
You think you're better than I am?
Ad Hominem
You think you're better than I am
