Lord, I heard a song today |
|
It said you’d take all my hurt away |
Well then Lord please tell me why |
|
Why after seven years I still wish to die
|
Why can’t anyone accept me for who I am?
|
|
Just a long haired bum of a fat man |
They reject me wherever I go |
|
Then they ask me why I feel so low |
I don’t think my self-hatred would be |
|
If only one, just one would love me |
I happen to be stuck in this time and place
|
|
With forty pounds extra and this ugly face
|
Why can’t they accept me for who I am?
|
|
Just a long haired bum of a fat man |
They tell me to cut all my hair away |
|
Then they make me live on 400 calories a day
|
Wear dress cloths thy politely implore |
|
Or forget you, we don’t want you any more |
Lord I thank you for accepting who I am
|
|
Just a long haired bum of a fat man |
