A Human Being - Eric Stewart

I’m not a yid, I’m not a yok

I’m not a spic, I’m not a wap

I’m not a honky, I’m not a coon

If you disagree, you gimme fighting room

My mother was Irish, she called me Mick

My dad was a Scot, but he knew the licks

So I find myself on the edge of a point of view

I am a human, seeing.

I am a human, believing

I am a human, just feeling.

I am a human, being

I’m not a queen and I’m not a fag

I’m not a fairy, it’s such a drag

Is it really straight?

We pontificate

When the way we move’s just a twist of fate

Oooh give it a name and we give it a face

Slander my name all over the place

But we’re standing around on the edge of a bottomless pit

I am a human, seeing.

I am a human, believing

I am a human, just feeling.

I am a human, being

There is a spark inside of you

Well, it’s not religious, but that won’t do

There is a God for everyone

Well he’s not religious, but we still get it wrong

Well I’m no saint, no I got no creed

If I cut myself I will surely bleed

But I find myself there laughing at the wailing wall

I am a human, seeing.

I am a human, believing

I am a human, just feeling.

I am a human, being

I am a human, seeing.

I am a human, believing

I am a human, just feeling.

I am a human, being

I am a human, seeing.

I am a human, believing

I am a human, just feeling.

I am a human, being

I am a human, seeing.

I am a human, believing

I am a human, just feeling.

I am a human, being

I am a human, seeing.

I am a human, believing

I am a human, just feeling.

I am a human, being
