Don't Laugh At Me

I'm a little boy with glasses The one they call the geek A little girl who never smiles 'Cause I've got braces on my teeth And I know how it feels To cry myself to sleep I'm that kid on every playground Who's always chosen last A single teenage mother Tryin' to overcome my past You don't have to be my friend Is it too much to ask? Don't laugh at me, don't call me names Don't get your pleasure from my pain 'Cause in God's eyes we're all the same Someday we'll all have perfect wings Don't laugh at me I'm the cripple on the corner You pass me on the street And I wouldn't be out here beggin' If I had enough to eat And don't think I don't notice That our eyes never meet I lost my wife and little boy When someone crossed that yellow line The day we laid 'em in the ground Is the day I lost my mind Right now I'm down to holdin' This little cardboard sign So don't laugh at me, don't call me names Don't get your pleasure from my pain 'Cause in God's eyes we're all the same Someday we'll all have perfect wings Don't laugh at me 'Cause I'm fat, I'm thin, I'm short, I'm tall I'm deaf, I'm blind, hey, aren't we all? Don't laugh at me, don't call me names Don't get your pleasure from my pain 'Cause in God's eyes we're all the same Someday we'll all have perfect wings Don't laugh at me
