janis ian – society’s child (solo) كلمات اغاني
[verse 1]
you come to my door, baby
your face is clean and shining black as night
my mama went to answer
you know that you looked so fine
now i could understand the tears and the shame
she called you “boy” instead of your name
when she wouldn’t let you inside
when she turned and said
“but honey, he’s not our kind”
[chorus]
she said i can’t see you any more, baby
can’t see you any more
[verse 2]
walk me down to school, baby
everybody’s acting deaf and blind
until they turn and say
“why don’t you just stick to your own kind?”
my teachers all laugh, their smirking stares
cutting deep down in our affairs
preachers of equality
think they believе it
then why won’t they just let us bе?
[chorus]
they say i can’t see you any more, baby
can’t see you any more
[verse 3]
one of these days i’m gonna stop my listening
gonna raise my head up high
one of these days i’m gonna raise up my glistening wings and fly
but that day will have to wait for a while
baby, i’m only society’s child
when we’re older things may change
but for now this is the way they must remain
[chorus]
i say i can’t see you any more, baby
can’t see you any more
no, i don’t wanna see you any more, baby
