sung by Peter, Paul and Mary
from (Steve Seskin/Allen Shamblin)

D
I'm a little boy with glasses

The one they call a geek
Bm
A little girl who never smiles

'Cause I have braces on my teeth
G          D/F#    Em                    A
And I know how it feels to cry myself to sleep
D

I'm that kid on every playground

Who's always chosen last
Bm
A single teenage mother

Tryin' to overcome my past
G         D/F#          Em
You don't have to be my friend
                      A
But is it too much to ask

               D
Don't laugh at me
              Bm
Don't call me names
               G                A
Don't get your pleasure from my pain
         D                  Bm
In God's eyes we're all the same
              G                A
Someday we'll all have perfect wings
               D
Don't laugh at me

D
I'm the beggar on the corner

You've passed me on the street
      Bm
And I wouldn't be out here beggin'

If I had enough to eat
    G           D/F#    Em
And don't think I don't notice
                    A
That our eyes never meet

              D
Don't laugh at me
              Bm
Don't call me names

Someday we'll all have perfect wings

Don't laugh at me

I'm fat, I'm thin, I'm short, I'm tall
