Ode to an Ugly Boy

Can somebody love an Ugly Boy
Can somebody love an Ugly Boy
When an Ugly Boy breaks his sister’s toy
When an Ugly Boy brings gloom to joy
When an Ugly Boy can’t gracefully dance
When an Ugly Boy has the loser’s stance
Is there someone there to give him another chance
Is there someone there to read his lonely glance
Can somebody love an Ugly Boy
Can somebody love an Ugly Boy
When an Ugly Boy is neither fat nor thin
When an Ugly Boy dribbles down his chin
When an Ugly Boy kicks his best friend’s shin
When an Ugly Boy makes his Momma’s head spin
Is there someone there who finds him cute
Is there someone there who doesn’t think he’s a brute
Can somebody love an Ugly Boy
Can somebody love an Ugly Boy
When an Ugly Boy learns to lie and steal
When an Ugly Boy starts to double deal
When an Ugly Boy stands up and fights
When an Ugly Boy asserts his rights
Is there someone there who sees a hero in him
Is there someone there who hears his cry within
Can somebody love an Ugly Boy
Can somebody love an Ugly Boy
When an Ugly Boy plucks his heart from the dust
When an Ugly Boy loses faith in trust
When an Ugly Boy does it all for love
When and Ugly Boy braves it all for love
When an Ugly Boy bows his head in shame
When an Ugly Boy breaks the rules of the game
When an Ugly Boy is neither meek nor commanding
When an Ugly Boy is the last one standing
Is there someone there who sheds a tear for him
Is there someone there to raise a cheer for him
Can somebody love an Ugly Boy
Can somebody love an Ugly Boy
