[instrumental intro] [build up] [chorus] I was born without hands "dance little man, dance" My dad would exclaim Taught from early on Taught by god and all One had to learn to walk Before one could ever fall. [verse] Grew up with the jitterbug in my stomach and boy those legs carried me along It so happens that one day my spin got caught in wire. The day it enevitably would go wrong. I'd go to hospital and where I'm from it's just about free However, I'd become an amputee To slither is now key. [chorus variation] I was born without hands "dance little man, dance" My dad would exclaim Taught from early on Taught by god and all One had to learn to walk Before one could ever fall Now with no feet My downward spiral had to be complete [instrumental solo] [verse variation] But no my friend, public center of rehabilitation disagrees They had one wish, it was to make me less positively meak. Told me to dis-embark my hope and take on whatever they'd throw. With no hands it's hard to play catch I ended up as the non-approved batch [bridge] So all I was ever good at was parts, I never even had at the start. They kept at it, scraped and cut until they had in hand intestants and what not. [chorus variation] I was born without hands "dance little man, dance My dad would exclaim Taught from early on Taught by god and all One had to learn to walk before one could ever fall Now it's left for me to roll until end of days My head is what's left In this hamster wheel - a never ending test. [instrumental outro]
