Letter to God (1974)

I don't wanna go to Grandma's, so I'm quiet on the drive

I don't wanna go to Grandma's, so I'm quiet on the drive
I saw a deer that must have gotten hit, it made me start to cry
Did he have a mom and dad and do they argue just like mine?
And did he have a little brother that annoyed him all the time?

Did he wanna be a grown-up?
Did he wanna be a grown-up?
Were there trees he liked to climb?
There was a boy I went to school with who had leukemia at five
His parents gave him everything, they'd never yell or fight

They'd never make him cut his hair because they're happy he survived
He didn't have to clean his room, it was enough to be alive
When I was little, I was jealous, so I'm gonna say a prayer at night
Well, I'd say

"Please God, I wanna be sick
I don't wanna hurt, so get it over with quick
Please God, I wanna be loved
I don't wanna be somebody that they want to get rid of"

"Please God, I wanna be sick
I don't wanna hurt, so get it over with quick
Please God, I wanna be loved
I don't wanna be somebody they wanna get rid of"
