Handicap And Equality (2006 Digital Remaster) - Peter Hammill[00:00:00]

All men are born equal at[00:00:19]

The moment they arrive [00:00:23]

Check the limbs and[00:00:28]

Senses we require to survive [00:00:30]

But some come deaf[00:00:36]

And dumb and blinded [00:00:38]

Some have damage to their brains:[00:00:40]

Parents constantly reminded[00:00:45]

That they'll never play the[00:00:50]

Normal children's games [00:00:53]

They may not be normal [00:00:57]

But they're people just the same [00:00:59]

If Christ had been born[00:01:05]

Defective to fulfil the Father's plan[00:01:07]

Would he be as easily accepted[00:01:13]

As God made man[00:01:18]

Or does the human value alter[00:01:21]

In the crippled human frame [00:01:27]

Though the tongue and fingers falter[00:01:31]

Must we shut them out[00:01:36]

And shut them up [00:01:37]

And shut the case and[00:01:39]

Whisper 'such a shame '[00:01:40]

That's how we shut them away [00:01:44]

Most of us are lucky [00:02:46]

Free from accidents at birth[00:02:50]

But their victims share our[00:02:54]

Right to the inheritance of earth [00:02:58]

For all their grunts their stumps [00:03:03]

Their tumours their eternal wheelchairs [00:03:06]

We're the freaks we're the inhumans [00:03:13]

If we close our eyes and turn aside pretend[00:03:17]

That if we do they'll not be there [00:03:21]

They've got to face it so we've got to face it [00:03:25]

Still they've got to live with it[00:03:42]

In a worlds we supposedly share[00:03:45]
