I have followed lots of men to hell and halfway back again
but you’re e-ffic-ient
Your critiques ring in my ears and you play on my every fear
and make me feel somehow deficient
I will follow you
and hand you gear when trouble’s brewing
I will follow you
When a brand new ship needs crewing
I will follow you
I’ve made a lot of bad decisions
Made my mind up this is what I’ll do.
You say we’re off to Africa and going to visit Prester John
I don’t believe you
I will keep an eye on you and find out what you’re really up to
and if required somehow retrieve you
I will follow you
hallucinate and dance till morning
I will follow you
my hero worship you are scorning
I will follow you
I’ve made a lot of bad assumptions
I will prove to you my trust is true
This time it is Iceland and it’s not a very nice land
’cause vol-ca-no
Also it is wintertime and there is much terrain to climb
before our fortune we can gain-o
I will follow you
You found a man trapped in a snow slide
I will follow you
We caught a polar bear alive
I will follow you
I’ve risked my life and reputation
You’re my best friend, I will follow you.
Off we go to the Levant and I, unwanted mendicant
Need you and gold
Patriarch of Antioch I cling by faith to Peter’s Rock
You can flee but I am bold
I will follow you
You are crucial to my scheming
I will follow you
You always need a verbal reaming
I will follow you
To free all of the Christian nations
There is nothing to you I won’t do.
