Never Small

Why doesn't anyone ever fall? 
Why is it everyone has to tell me they were never small? 

Well, you're an unsung hero 
The kind you never think about 
But everybody knows you 
Cause they can hear the big words, big words 
Did you hear the latest? Does it make you seasick? You won't tell me anything 
Cause it's super secret, super secret 

Do I have to walk like the rest of them? 
Talk like the rest of them? 
Pray like the rest of them? 
And slap the face of God like the rest of them? 
So where's my magic number? 
I want my magic number! 
I can't show you anything 
Cause I don't have a weakness, weakness! 

I was afraid of the poetry 
But I looked up and watched the rocket ship 
explode in front of me 
I took my time, 'cause I was free 
I made up my mind that this was all that you 
were ever gonna see --when you see me-- 

Why doesn't anyone ever fall? 
Why is it everyone has to tell me that they were never small? 
Why doesn't anyone ever fall? Only on Sundays…
