'Cause I'm fat, I'm thin, I'm short, I'm tallI'm deaf, I'm blind, hey, aren't we all?

So don't laugh at me, don't call me namesDon't get your pleasure from my pain'Cause in God's eyes we're all the sameSomeday we'll all have perfect wingsDon't laugh at me

I lost my wife and little boyWhen someone crossed that yellow lineThe day we laid 'em in the groundIs the day I lost my mindRight now I'm down to holdin'This little cardboard sign

Don't laugh at me, don't call me namesDon't get your pleasure from my pain'Cause in God's eyes we're all the sameSomeday we'll all have perfect wingsDon't laugh at me
