The Ballad

Last selection of the ballgame
Does never get a pass
Not appreciated's just his first name
He's the scapegoat off the class
There are no friends to cheer him up and
No girls, no sweet romance
And it's impossible to expand
when you never got a second chance

Do you know who's that guy
Who's all alone
Do you care enough to see
He's in pain and misery

He's not going to the school-prom
He said he had the flu
Trumped-up excuses as he told mom
I'm safer here with you
She told her son
someday they'll all be
Sorry for mistreating you
Don't be afraid my son and trust me
You'll be someone they will look up to

Do you know who's that guy
Who's all alone
And do you care enough to see
He's in pain and misery
Do you care to see?
