To celebrate the odd |
I think we need a holiday To celebrate the odd You know the ones I’m talking ‘bout Those ones not blessed by God The short ones and the over-tall Who always do stand out The ones who have those quirky looks They’d like to live without The ones whose ears stick out too much Or have an ugly nose Certainly the bald would fit And I am one of those Ah, that’s not all that’s wrong with me I must admit it’s true I wish I could say that it’s not But I can’t lie to you The redheads and the lefties too Since they are not the norm Yeah, throw them in with all the freaks No way they can conform I’m looking ‘round to see who’s left Just one or two I guess How did they manage to evade This monumental mess? But when you stop to think on it Those perfect ones are few So they are not the norm at all Yeah, they are odd ones too And they must live with their own curse To always look their best So if you stretch the truth a bit They fit in with the rest So never mind this holiday No need to celebrate We all are stuck on God’s green earth No matter what our state So we can just accept our looks There’s no more we can do And if the others may seem odd We’ll just accept them too Hey, maybe we should celebrate The commonness we share And try to help the ones in need With more than simple prayer But we don’t need a single day That wouldn’t be enough No, we should do it everyday This world can be real tough Let’s get together; lend a hand To all of those in need The odd ones and the not so odd A holiday, indeed |
