From the recording Afternoon in the Park (Cast Recording)
Lyrics
Who do they see?
When they look at me?
The mirror doesn’t lie
I’m different to the eye
When they’re afraid
It makes my heart break
Being different can be sadder
Life’s too short to make it matter
I tell myself, it's just my style
They're always gonna see me smile!
I do magic.
So many tricks
Make children laugh
With my yellow giraffe
It's fun to see
When they all laugh with me
Being different can be sadder
Life’s too short to make it matter
I tell myself, it's just my style
They're always gonna see me smile!
I’ve been there too
And just like you
Thought it was mean when they laughed and teased
But then I say
Be smart and walk away
Being different can be sadder
Life’s too short to make it matter
I tell myself, it's just my style
They're always gonna see me smile!
