Maybe I bag your groceries
Maybe I clean your pool
Maybe I trim your hedges
But I'm no fool
Maybe I lack the fashion
Maybe I've torn my jeans
Maybe I need a haircut
But I've got dreams
Maybe we're not on welfare
Mom and sis and bro
Maybe my daddy's long gone
Maybe you don't know
Maybe my skin isn't just like yours
Maybe my teeth aren't white
Maybe your so-called standards
Aren't altogether right
Maybe I'd work very hard to win
Maybe I'd learn from a book
Maybe my abilities
Are worth another look
Use your eyes and see me
Take all my features in
Consider what's on the inside
Look beyond where I begin
