In every way the wish went wrong

The gift was tainted by science fact

Their minds were changed, a brother born

A perfect new born little man



Some they lose when they are born

With a less than perfect code

Others dreaming of the stars

Never feeling ice or cold



Doomed to be mediocre or nothing at all

Doomed a part of the background as plain as the wall



Reach, reach out, reach out for the horizon

Reach, reach out, reach out, reach for the stars



Society includes the rules

To exclude and invalidate

This ladder can not be climed

By the god child degenerate



Has he got just what it takes

To go and take just what he wants

To find the strength, to get the place

The place he feels that he belongs
