Freak

People come and laugh at me everyday of the week.

I'm in a carnival because I'm a freak.

Some people laugh and some people are scared.

I'm a big joke to these people and that's too much to bear.

Some people throw peanuts at me, they don't care what they do.

They don't realize that I'm a human being and I have feelings too.

I have the face of a monster and I'm not pretty to look at.

I get treated terribly and I don't deserve that.

I wish I had relatives who would come and take me away.

But I have nobody so I guess I'm here to stay.
