lyrics

Wandering in a crowded street,
A tiny little boy was holding his bunny tight on his chest,
Wondering where to go alone,
Distress in the eyes, whispering to his destroyed one-eyed bunny:

« Don’t look at them, they’re all weirdos, don’t tell them our secret »
Would people care? Just a few glancing a funny look at the boy.

I tried to approach the helpless creature
And help him find his way home
But he cried and spit on me like an angry wild cat
Slowly rolling on the floor, twisting, loosing it.

« Don’t look at me, I’m the weirdo, don’t tell them my secret »
Would people care? Or would I be too pretentious to help the boy.

His parents ran out of nowhere, followed by the whole kit,
Police, firemen, doctors, ready to lock him up.
I watched the scene as an absurd picture and whispered:

« Don’t look at them, they’re all weirdos, I won't tell your secret »
Would people care? Or would I be too pretentious to help the boy.
