Don't Laugh At Me Lyrics
I'm a little boy with glasses, the one they call a geek
A littl girl who never smiles cuz I got braces on my teeth
And I know how it feels to cry myself to sleep
I'm that kid on every playground who is always chosen last
A single teenage mother tryin to overcome her past
You don't have to be my friend if it's too much to ask
Chorus:
Don't laugh at me, don't call me names
Don't get your pleasure from my pain
In God's eyes we're all the same some day we'll all have perfect wings
Don't laugh at me
I'm a cripple on the corner
You pass me on the street
I wouldn't be out here begging if I had enough to eat
And don't think I dont notice that our eyes never meet
I lost my wife and little boy someone crossed that yellow line
The day we layed 'em in the ground was the day I lost my mind
Right now I'm down to holdin' this little cardboard sign
Chorus
I'm fat, I'm thin
I'm short, I'm tall
I'm deaf, I'm blind
Hey aren't we all
Chorus.
A littl girl who never smiles cuz I got braces on my teeth
And I know how it feels to cry myself to sleep
I'm that kid on every playground who is always chosen last
A single teenage mother tryin to overcome her past
You don't have to be my friend if it's too much to ask
Don't laugh at me, don't call me names
Don't get your pleasure from my pain
In God's eyes we're all the same some day we'll all have perfect wings
Don't laugh at me
You pass me on the street
I wouldn't be out here begging if I had enough to eat
And don't think I dont notice that our eyes never meet
I lost my wife and little boy someone crossed that yellow line
The day we layed 'em in the ground was the day I lost my mind
Right now I'm down to holdin' this little cardboard sign
I'm fat, I'm thin
I'm short, I'm tall
I'm deaf, I'm blind
Hey aren't we all

I was so touching when I listened to this song. I love the video and I love the way how he song. So attractive! For me, I love "In God's eyes we're all the same" this sentence most. So...Don't get our pressure from others' pain from now on! We will have our perfect wings someday, I wish.
since no one else has wrote anything i will...this song is so meaningful...everyone who has picked on someone needs to hear this song....i love it...bye
some people are cruel,and this song is what they need to listen to.i know i have to after i have been cruel to others.
This song might as well have been writen about me. I'm the geek, I've got the braces, it's just really encouraging.
this song is so sad it makes you want to go out and hug everyone that you have made fun of and apologize, it really makes you think about the way you treat people. It also makes you want to go punch the people who make fun of these people in their face :)...totally a great song
Basically, I think he is saying that if you laugh at him or his kids, he will come to your house/school/place of employment and personally eat your soul.
For me, grades 5-8 were hell. I was constantly picked on and harassed. I heard this song for the first time when I was in the 6th grade and I cried because it touched me so much. I don't have those issues now, but this song will always be special to me.
For some reason, this song makes me depressed.
This song makes me really depressed. I remember the first time I heard it, I had to sit down, because it overwhelmed me. I had been picking on people my whole life, and so to me this was a very powerful song.
It makes me feel like I wasted so much time being mean...
Mr. No Name, I don't know if you will ever see this but I'm sorry this song makes you depressed. Instead of feeling bad for the people you picked on, be happy this song made you reconsider being mean to people. If it brought about a positive change in your life, you should feel good when hear it.
