 I'll take the position 
Assume the missionary part 
You work by committee, 
You had me pegged from the start 
I'll be pounce pony, 
Phony maroney, 
Pony before the cart 
I'll be pounce pony 
This ceremony 
Only fills my heart 
Who cast the final stone? 
Who threw the crushing blow? 
Someone has to take the fall 
Why not me? 
A punch toy volunteer 
A weakling on its knee 
Is all you want to hear 
And all you want to see 
Romantically, you'd martyr me 
And miss this story's point 
It is my strength, my destiny 
This is the role that I have chosen 
(Chorus) 
Who cast the final stone? 
Who threw the crushing blow? 
Someone has to take the fall 
Why not me? why not me? 
Gentlemen mark your opponents 
Fire into your own ranks 
Pick the weakest as strategic 
Move. square off. to 
Meet your enemy 
For each and every gathering 
A scapegoat falls to climb 
As I step forward, silently 
Deliberately mine 
(Repeat chorus) 
Had consequence chose differently 
Had fate its ugly head 
My actions make me beautiful 
And dignify the flesh 
Me. I am free, I am free
