The Earth and Other Minor Things lyrics

[Gigi]

The Postman or mama or Aunt Alicia

That's all it seems to be a question of

A pauper or a slave or Aunt Alicia

But not a mention anywhere of love

What is there than anyone can teach?

If everything I want is out of reach?

I know about the earth and other minor things

Why caterpillars smile and summertime has wings

How if somewhere there's always a dawn

The earth must be worth being on

But there's something that makes a continual riddle of it

Why oh why I'm here in the middle of it all

I don't belong where the crowds are

Why don't I go where the clouds are

I know about the leaves that fall and then are gone

How small a kite becomes with no one holding on

And I can`t be a cloud in a storm with no where to go to be warm

But as long as I can't find a clue to the riddle of it

What am I to do in the middle of it all?

I don't belong where the crowds

I don't belong where the clouds are

Then where do I belong?
