Joanna (Spoken): Go ahead, Theo, make a wish and blow out the candles. Theo (Spoken): I wish...that I didn't drop a fly ball every single time... or go on my rollerblades without falling over...and not have this stupid baby face so I look about 5 years old... I wish I could be like everybody else. Joanna (Spoken): Theo, why would you want to waste a perfectly good wish on that? (Sung) If everyone you knew was just like everybody else... Kicker: They probably would never have Olympics. Cause if a hundred people ran the hundred meter race, we'd need hundred medals for they'd all come in first place. Joanna: If everyone you knew was just like everybody else, you couldn't tell my brother from a turtle. Iris: Except one likes the water Joanna: And the other hates a bath. Brett: One gives off a funny smell, Joanna: The other stinks at math. Kicker (Spoken): Hey! Joanna: Both could use a harder shell. Iris: Time will tell, it's just as well. All (except Theo): That everyone you know is not like everybody else... Brett: We probably would never go to movies... You wouldn't want to spend your money just to sit and see All (except Theo): People who all look and act the same as you and me! Iris: Life would be an awful bore. Joanna: What is more Brett: Be thankful you're All (except Theo): Theo! And you're someone unlike everybody else! Theo: But if I only had a body that nobody would tease... Iris: Well, I wish I didn't have big ears, but so what? Kicker: Oh, give me longer legs. Joanna: Without knobby legs. Brett: I have a giant birthmark right on my butt. Iris/Kicker: So Theo stop your crying and trying to please... Joanna: Be pleased with who you are. All (except Theo): A one-of-a-kind! All: Oh, if everyone you knew was just like everybody else... Theo: I guess there'd be a million, trillion Theo's. Joanna: And unlike every snowflake everyone would be the same, Brett: And when I'd call, "Hey, Theo!" They'd all answer to your name. Iris: You couldn't tell who's real or fake, Kicker: I could take your piece of cake! All (except Theo): No mistake about it, can't you see... Brett: A snake's not meant to fly. A bird's not meant to swim. Kicker: I'm glad that I'm not her... Joanna: I'm thrilled that I'm not him. Iris: Be happy you are you Iris/Brett: Cause two of you won't do. All (except Theo): And that goes double if there were a few! For if everyone you knew was just like everyone you knew then it would be our birthday too! "Happy birthday to us..." Theo: No! Me! All (except Theo): Happy birthday to you! [Thanks to mymusicalife@yahoo.com for lyrics] Back to main page: Children's Letters to God Lyrics
