《The Midget’s Lament》歌词

[00:00:01] The Midget's Lament (Live At Carnegie Hall) - Dory Previn

[00:00:50] I walk in

[00:00:52] I ain't too dumb

[00:00:54] I know I got some handicaps t'overcome

[00:00:57] I mean y'seen one midget

[00:01:00] Y'seen 'em all

[00:01:02] Oh yeah midget

[00:01:05] Oh yeah small

[00:01:07] And that's as far as you can see

[00:01:11] Is that the sum

[00:01:12] And total substance of me

[00:01:15] Midgets d-warfs chimps in a zoo

[00:01:19] They all look alike to you

[00:01:27] Well listen good

[00:01:30] 'Cause I don't lie

[00:01:32] There's a whole lot more to me

[00:01:34] Than meets the eye

[00:01:36] And it fills my little soul

[00:01:39] With midget hate

[00:01:40] The way that people will not learn

[00:01:43] To differentiate

[00:01:45] Yeah sure midget

[00:01:47] That's what you say

[00:01:49] And that's as far as it goes

[00:01:52] But have you ever said

[00:01:54] That's a hungarian midget

[00:01:57] Or that's a midget with

[00:01:59] A wart on his nose

[00:02:05] Have you ever taken the time to notice

[00:02:10] A midget with curly hair

[00:02:12] It isn't fair

[00:02:14] There are skinny midgets

[00:02:15] Fat midgets

[00:02:16] Gay midgets flat midgets

[00:02:19] There are midgets in deep despair

[00:02:23] Half a soul half a brain

[00:02:27] Half a heart

[00:02:29] And twice the pain

[00:02:31] Sure they're cute

[00:02:33] And they're a lot of fun

[00:02:35] But would you want your sister

[00:02:37] To marry one

[00:02:44] Midget small

[00:02:46] That's it and that's all

[00:02:48] The classification it is made

[00:02:53] Midget runt

[00:02:54] Well now I gotta be blunt

[00:02:57] I wish I was born

[00:02:58] I wish I was born a spade

[00:03:00] Sure I would still be a midget

[00:03:03] But I would have such

[00:03:04] Such beautiful coloration

[00:03:05] And among my fellow midgets

[00:03:07] I would be a sensation

[00:03:09] Talk about standing out

[00:03:12] In the pack

[00:03:16] I wish I was black

[00:03:19] Midgets d-warfs chimpanzees

[00:03:24] Ain't it all relative

[00:03:26] When you're on your knees

[00:03:28] So don't tell me

[00:03:29] Don't tell me

[00:03:30] About minorities

[00:03:34] I wish to christ

[00:03:37] I wish to christ

[00:03:42] I was black
