Regina Spektor - Human Of The Year Lyrics

Hello, hello, calling a Carl Prejektorinski
To the front of the cathedral
You have won, dear Sir, may I congratulate you first?
Oh, what an honor

Human, human of the year, you are
Human, human of the year, you are

Why are you so scared?
You stand there shaking in the pew
The icons are whispering to you

They're just old men
Like on the benches in the park
Except their balding spots are glistening with gold

Human, human of the year, you are
Human, human of the year, you are

Ah, ah, ah, you have won
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Outside the cars are beeping out a song
Just in your honor
And although they do not know it
All mankind are now your brothers

And thus the cathedral had spoken
Wishing well to all the sinners
And with a sigh grew silent
Until next year's big human winner

Outside the cars are beeping out a song
Just in your honor
And although they do not know it
All mankind are now your brothers
All mankind are now your brothers

Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Hello, hello, calling a Carl Prejektorinski
To the front of the cathedral
You have won
