Society's Child (Baby I've Been Thinking) (In the Style of Janis Ian) Karaoke Lead Vocal Version - Janis Ian[00:00:00]

Come to my door baby[00:00:18]

Face is clean and shining black as night[00:00:22]

My mother went to answer[00:00:27]

You know that you looked so fine[00:00:29]

Now I could understand your tears and your shame[00:00:34]

She called you 'Boy' instead of your name[00:00:40]

When she wouldn't let you inside[00:00:45]

When she turned and said "But honey he's not our kind"[00:00:49]

She says I can't see you any more baby[00:00:57]

Can't see you anymore[00:01:04]

Walk me down to school baby[00:01:09]

Everybody's acting deaf and blind[00:01:14]

Until they turn and say[00:01:18]

Why don't you stick to your own kind[00:01:20]

My teachers all laugh they smirk and stare[00:01:26]

Cuttin' deep down in our affair[00:01:32]

Preachers of equality think they believe it[00:01:37]

Then why won't they just let us be [00:01:42]

They say I can't see you anymore baby[00:01:48]

Can't see you anymore[00:01:56]

One of these days I'm gonna stop my listenin'[00:02:01]

Gonna raise my head up high[00:02:05]

One of these days I'm gonna raise my glistenin'[00:02:10]

Wings and fly[00:02:14]

But that day will have to wait for awhile[00:02:20]

Baby I'm only a society's child[00:02:24]

When we're older things may change[00:02:29]

But for now this is the way they must remain[00:02:33]

I say I can't see you any more baby[00:02:41]

Can't see you anymore[00:02:48]

No I don't wanna see you any more baby[00:02:52]
