Ellis Paul

Ellis Paul (born Paul Plissey; January 14, 1965) is an American singer-songwriter and folk musician. Born in Aroostook County, Maine, Paul is a key figure in what has become known as the Boston school of songwriting, a literate, provocative and urbanely romantic folk-pop style that helped ignite the folk revival of the 1990s. His pop music songs have appeared in movies and on television, bridging the gap between the modern folk sound and the populist traditions of Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger. more »

Leo's is the bar up in heaven
Where all the martyrs hang out
Gandhi staggers in with John Lennon
They'll start a bar fight, no doubt

When you lead, we follow
When you bleed, oh the masses feel your pain
Plant your seed, setting sunflowers 
Growing inside our brains

Now Jesus don't need no introduction
He's got a famous old man
And a party for twelve, I see Cobain, He's well
He's in the Angels that Fell
A local touring bar band

When you lead, we follow
When you bleed, oh the masses feel your pain
Plant your seed, setting sunflowers 
Growing inside our brains

JFK, Joan of Arc
Sit in the corner, kissing in the dark
Marilyn Monroe, Jacques Cousteau
Talk about the sharks they used to know

When you lead, we follow
When you bleed, oh the masses feel your pain
Plant your seed, setting sunflowers 
Growing inside our brains
