Call him the village idiot* But he not really that stupid Town people hurt the pit of his heart Though they say he's not that smart Can do a job and get a start Won't give 'em a start Try to put him They try to put down They call him a clown Chase him outta town Make him wear a frown Ya say he's not perfect And he belongs to a sect With not much intellect You show no respect But he won't jump through your ring Can do most anything Can do most anything Why are they so mean
I'm still a human being Call him the village idiot But he not really that stupid Town people hurt the pit of his heart Though they say he's not that smart Can do a job and get a start Won't give 'em a start Try to put down They call him a clown Chase him outta town Make him wear a frown Why are they so mean I'm still a human being But he won't jump through your ring Can do most anything Can do most anything But he won't jump through your ring
