A Reaching out for Someone
Once upon my boyhood timeThe circus came to townI remember church going peopleTalking the carnies downMisfits of societyThat's what they said to meSo I sneaked up closeAnd watched them workAnd found that actuallyThey laughed a lotThey sang out loudThe way they walkedMade them look kinda proudA little different from youA little different from mea lot like the man who walkedThrough GalileeMr. and Mrs. GoldsteinMoved in next door to usThe neighbors were indignantThey put up quit a fussSongtexteThe neighborhood had gone to potAnd they had worked so hardSo I sneaked out backPeeked through the fenceAnd watched them do the yardThey laughed a lotThey sang out loudThey looked just like the restOf the crowdA little different from youA little different from meA lot like the man who walkedThrough GalileeEveryone is differentBut everyone's the sameRiding around in circlesOn life's mysterious trainWhat if other peopleThought that way of youToo weak for the circusToo dumb to be a JewA plain old JoeIn wash 'n' wear suitWasting his life awayOr do they look in envyAnd do or don't they say
