Say a prayer for the common man
Struggling through life the best that he can
You can't really blame him, the poor sorry ape
It's just bad luck, it's only fate
Shed a tear for the multitudes
Be they ignorant, ugly and crude
I try to be patient and kind to the lot
'Cause they'll never have the gifts I've got
But it seems
No one ever sees
The real
Miracle of Me
Only God and I
Only God and I
They said I was ahead of my time
'Cause I could read Dostoevsky at nine
I looked all around me, and what did I see?
A world of jumping circus fleas
So say a prayer for the common man
Say another for me if you can
The pain of a genius
It's lonely, it's great
But it's just bad luck, it's only fate
'Cause it seems
No one ever sees
The real
Miracle of Me
Only God and I
Only God and I
