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
But is it too much to ask
Don't laugh at me
Don't call me names
Don't get your pleasure from my pain
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've passed 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 cross that yellow line
The day we laid them in the ground
Is the day I lost my mind
And 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
In God's eyes we're all the same
Someday we'll all have perfect wings
Don't laugh at me
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
In God's eyes we're all the same
Someday we'll all have perfect wings
Don't laugh at me

I posted Mark Willis song too...but your changed lyrics are so much better.
I have an ADHD Child whom now is 17- the struggles I went through as a single mother makes me wanna cry. I worked three jobs, had no life, still don't...and I love to blog...and my sisters child is dyslexic so "don't laugh at me" is my motto now... I struggle with a face condition and I see it in their eyes, their faces, they are laughing at me...I can identify with your post so much, thank you and you blessed me today. ♥
Hello Jackie.....I love this song so much. You know for all the talk about how things are different now....We see how people look at Mickie when we are out in public, which is why it doesn't happen to often.
It's really sad to realize how mean and cold human beings can be.
Thank you for visiting

Very moveing.
