i've often wondered about history
some kids who give up live in misery
talented gifted but unmotivated
to take on anything complicated
chorus
it's ok to dream and explore
it's ok to give money to the poor
my younger brother got some abuse
family system was set up to lose
son of the youngest and youngest of ten
a pecking order was suffocatin'
chorus
Jews teach us that the youngest can win
if given help and love often
even the smallest could slay anything
armed with a stone cast by a sling
chorus
my neighbor played high school football
fast on his feet but much too small
to be in any professional league
or college venue he just was not big
chorus
i've often wondered about history
some kids who give up live in misery
talented gifted but unmotivated
to take on anything that's complicated
chorus twice
