i should have been my brother or my
friend's wife susan
instead i'm a freak who thinks that
better days must lie ahead
i should have been someone else but i
have no doubt that
jesus, the beatles and jim dean will
help me work it out
my mother lost her smile on my birthday
i'll win it back for her
the hand that beats this child is in vain
kick the freak
lick the freak
taste the freak
kiss the freak
i am the freak
i could have been a big shot
like elvis or barb streisand
i could have been president or a
groundskeeper at graceland
my mother lost her smile on my birthday
i'll win it back for her
the hand that beats this child is in vain
kick the freak
lick the freak
taste the freak
kiss the freak
i am the freak
yeah

my mother lost her smile on my birthday
the hand that beats this child is in vain
and i will sport a style you call freak
they're all pointing at me
i will sport a smile
kick the freak
kick the freak
lick the freak
taste the freak
kiss the freak
i am the freak
