Don't Laugh at Me

 Song of the Day:  Don't Laugh at Me
           Written by Steve Seskin and Allen Shamblin
             Adapted and Performed by Kathy Neufeld
1. I'm a little boy with glasses, the one they call a geek.
A little girl who never smiles cuz I've got braces on my teeth.
And I know how it feels to cry myself to sleep.
Refrain: Don't laugh at me. Don't call me names.
Don't get your pleasure from my pain.
In this world we're all the same.
Someday we'll all have perfect wings.
Don't laugh at me.

2. I'm that kid on every playground who's always chosen last;
A single teenage mother trying to overcome my past.
You don't have to be my friend, but is that too much to ask?
Refrain: Don't laugh at me. Don't call me names.
Don't get your pleasure from my pain.
In this world we're all the same.
Someday we'll all have perfect wings.
Don't laugh at me.
3. I'm the beggar on a corner, you've passed me on a street.
I wouldn't be out her begging if I had enough to eat.
And don't think I don't notice that our eyes never meet.

Refrain: Don't laugh at me. Don't call me names.
Don't get your pleasure from my pain.
In this world we're all the same.
Someday we'll all have perfect wings.
Don't laugh at me.  I am free...
