Just about any line from the show works for this photo:

"Genius! By seemingly embracing the cliches of the vest, he is underscoring its excruciating banality." "

"Vould you like to touch my monkey? Touch him! Love him! Liebe meine abst-monkey"

"I'm happy as a little GIIIIIRL."

"You disturb me to the point of insanity. There. I am insane now."

Look into my eyes, what do you see?
Cult of personality
I know your anger, I know your dreams
I’ve been everything you want to be
I’m the cult of personality
Like mussolini and kennedy
I’m the cult of personality
Cult of personality
Cult of personality

Neon lights, a nobel prize
The mirror speaks, the reflection lies
You don’t have to follow me
Only you can set me free
I sell the things you need to be
I’m the smiling face on your t.v.
I’m the cult of personality
I exploit you still you love me

I tell you one and one makes three
I’m the cult of personality
Like joseph stalin and gandi
I’m the cult of personality
Cult of personality
Cult of personality

Neon lights a nobel prize
A leader speaks, that leader dies
You don’t have to follow me
Only you can set you free

You gave me fortune
You gave me fame
You me power in your god’s name
I’m every person you need to be
I’m the cult of personality
Look into my eyes, what do you see?
Cult of personality
I know your anger, I know your dreams
I’ve been everything you want to be
I’m the cult of personality
Like mussolini and kennedy
I’m the cult of personality
Cult of personality
Cult of personality

Neon lights, a nobel prize
The mirror speaks, the reflection lies
You don’t have to follow me
Only you can set me free
I sell the things you need to be
I’m the smiling face on your t.v.
I’m the cult of personality
I exploit you still you love me

I tell you one and one makes three
I’m the cult of personality
Like joseph stalin and gandi
I’m the cult of personality
Cult of personality
Cult of personality

I expect to see this scene happen soon.

Mar 5:24 And OBAMA went with him; and much people followed him, and thronged him.
Mar 5:25 And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years,
Mar 5:26 And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,
Mar 5:27 When she had heard of OBAMA, came in the PRESS behind, and touched his garment.
Mar 5:28 For she said, If I may touch but OBAMA's clothes, I shall be whole.
Mar 5:29 And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in [her] body that she was healed of that plague.
Mar 5:30 And OBAMA, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the PRESS, and said, Who touched my clothes?
Mar 5:31 And his disciples said unto THE SENATOR, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?
Mar 5:32 And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing.
Mar 5:33 But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.
Mar 5:34 And OBAMA said unto her, Daughter, thy HOPE hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.

Hmmm... we need a new rock opera, like “Barry-O, Superstar”...

Crowd
See my eyes I can hardly see
See me stand I can hardly walk
I believe you can make me whole
See my tongue I can hardly talk

See my skin I’m a mass of blood
See my legs I can hardly stand
I believe you can make me well
See my purse I’m a poor, poor man

Will you touch, will you mend me wanna be christ?
Won’t you touch, will you heal me wanna be christ?
Will you kiss, you can heal me wanna be christ
Won’t you kiss, won’t you pay me wanna be christ?

Barry-O
Oh, there’s too many of you, don’t push me
Oh, there’s too little of me, don’t crowd me
Heal yourselves (through Marx)!

Barry-O, superstar
A Marxist christ
Is what you are...
