I Was Born Blue
Another day
Has come and gone
In a world
Where I don't belong
Another day
Has passed me by
And it's not because
I did not try
Why wasn't I born
With orange skin
And green hair
Like the rest
Of the people in the world?
I was born blue
I was born blue
Another job
That I can't get
Another house
That I can't rent
Another place
That I can't go
Rather than have me
They're gonna close their doors
Why wasn't I born
With orange skin
And green hair
Like the rest
Of the people in the world?
I was born blue
I was born blue
Why am I the target
Of hate and abuse?
When things go wrong
Why am I the first to be accused?
Am I asking more
Than anybody else?
When I try for the opportunity to help myself?
Why wasn't I born
With orange skin
And green hair
Like the rest
Of the people in the world?
I was born blue
I was born blue
I was born blue
Has come and gone
In a world
Where I don't belong
Another day
Has passed me by
And it's not because
I did not try
Why wasn't I born
With orange skin
And green hair
Like the rest
Of the people in the world?
I was born blue
I was born blue
Another job
That I can't get
Another house
That I can't rent
Another place
That I can't go
Rather than have me
They're gonna close their doors
Why wasn't I born
With orange skin
And green hair
Like the rest
Of the people in the world?
I was born blue
I was born blue
Why am I the target
Of hate and abuse?
When things go wrong
Why am I the first to be accused?
Am I asking more
Than anybody else?
When I try for the opportunity to help myself?
Why wasn't I born
With orange skin
And green hair
Like the rest
Of the people in the world?
I was born blue
I was born blue
I was born blue
