A small boy walked home one rainy Halloween
Two big kids were waiting on the dark side of the street
Those big kids came over and knocked that boy down
Took all his candy and left him there on the ground
How would you feel if that happened to you?
What would you say? What would you do?
Stop for a minute and stand in his shoes
How would you feel if that happened to you?
He acted and looked so much different than us
We taunted and teased him from the back of the bus
We even laughed when he started to cry
Our words were like stones he had nowhere to hide
Nobody wanted her, she didn’t fit in
With her on your team it was harder to win
So when teams were chosen the best kids went quick
And day after day she was the last one picked
One day at school a new kid appeared
She dressed sort of strange and she talked really weird
You could tell she was scared but she tried to pretend
So I asked her her name and said, “I’ll be your friend”
How would you feel if that happened to you?
What would you say? What would you do?
Stop for a minute and stand in her shoes
How would you feel if that happened to you? |
