The Wrong Child |
| I’ve watched the children come and go |
| A late long march into spring |
| I sit and watch those children |
| Jump in the tall grass |
| Leap the sprinkler |
| Walk in the ground |
| Bicycle clothespin spokes |
| The sound, the smell of swingset hands |
| I will try to sing a happy song |
| I’ll try and make a happy game to play |
| Come play with me I whispered to my new found friend |
| Tell me what it’s like to go outside |
| I’ve never been |
| Tell me what it’s like to just go outside |
| I’ve never been |
| And I never will |
| And I’m not supposed to be like this |
| I’m not supposed to be like this |
| But it’s okay |
| Hey, those kids are looking at me |
| I told my friend myself |
| Those kids are looking at me |
| They’re laughing and they’re running over here |
| They’re laughing and they’re running over here |
| What do I do? |
| What can I do? |
| What should I do? |
| What do I say? |
| What can I say? |
| I said I’m not supposed to be like this |
| Let’s try to find a happy game to play |
| I’m not supposed to be like this |
| But it’s okay, okay |
