You came home from school On a special bus Full of people Who look like you And love like you And you met me For the first time And you loved me. You love everybody So much that it’s not safe To let you out alone. Eleven years of love And trust and time for you to learn That you can’t go on loving like this. Unless you are stopped You will embrace every person you see. Normal people don’t do that. Some Normal people will hurt you Very badly because you do.
Cripples don’t look nice But you embrace them. You kissed a wino on the bus And he broke down and cried And he said ‘Nobody has kissed me For the last 30 years. But you did. You touched my face With your fingers and said ‘I like you.’
The world will never Be ready for you. Your way is right And the world will never be ready. We could learn everything That we need to know By watching you Going to your special school In your special bus Full of people Who look like you And love like you And it’s not safe To let you out alone. If you’re not normal There is very little hope For the rest of us.
