Derek Brown & Kliph Scurlock & Michael Ivins & Steven Drozd & Wayne CoyneHelping the Retarded to Know God Lyrics
We both hold our hands to our eyes blocking out the sun
Watching as the plane flew by ignoring everyone
We can hear them laughing at us judging all the time
I wish I could be like you, you don't pay them no mind
And I stood there with you trying not to cry
You don't pay them no mind

But it's here, we want to stay, where else would we go?
And I stood there with you trying not to cry
You don't pay them no mind
Oh, I am trying to know you, oh, I am trying to know you

Oh, I am trying to know you, oh, I am trying to know you
Oh, I am trying to know you, oh, I am
