The Ridiculous Boy
 
The boy withdrawn to his corner
he knows you don’t want him to be
Every day since his 7th birthday
he’s been the object of your mockery
 
but I’ve never seen him cry
He takes it all with a smile
 
You have him in your hands but he makes no sound
you think he’s between your foot and the ground
You’re trying to get the poor boy down
to be the laughing stock of the whole town
 
But he’s the one
he’s something
none of you can see
He’s the ridiculous boy
the one all of you would like to be
 
And you get your nauseous pleasure
you enjoy insulting the innocent one
He’s so much stronger than any of you
Yeah he really is different from you
But that’s not the difference
not the one you see
 
You have him in your hands but he makes no sound
you think he’s between your foot and the ground
You’re trying to get the poor boy down
to be the laughing stock of the whole town
 
But he’s the one
he’s something
none of you can see
He’s the ridiculous boy
the one all of you would like to be
 
The boy is so far away from you
he knows you can never reach
Reach nothing but his innocent body
you will stay away from his mind
He knows you can punch him
but the bruises will disappear
 
He knows he has nothing to fear
 
Lojunut keskeneräisenä pari päivää tuossa niin menkööt nyt tällaisena.
Sekava, keskeneräinen, kömpelö vielä omasta mielestäni.
Mutta menkööt.
