Mongoloid Lyrics
Mongoloid—he was a mongoloid!
Happier than you and me
Mongoloid—he was a mongoloid!
And it determined what he could see
Mongoloid—he was a mongoloid!
One chromosome too many
Mongoloid—he was a mongoloid!
And it determined what he could see
And he wore a hat
And he had a job
And he brought home the bacon
So that no one knew
He was a mongoloid—mongoloid!
His friends were unaware
Mongoloid—he was a mongoloid!
Nobody even cared
Mongoloid—he was a mongoloid!
One chromosome too many
Mongoloid—he was a mongoloid!
And it determined what he could see
And he wore a hat
And he had a job
And he brought home the bacon
So that no one knew
He was a mongoloid—mongoloid!
Happier than you and me
Mongoloid—he was a mongoloid!
And it determined what he could see
Mongoloid—he was a mongoloid!
One chromosome too many
Mongoloid—he was a mongoloid!
And it determined what he could see!
And he wore a hat
And he had a job
And he brought home the bacon
So that no one knew
Mongoloid—he was a mongoloid!
