    Story Behind the Song
    "Your Kind" was inspired by true events, and is a not-so-subtle commentary on the aversion humans feel towards those who are different. True events, as in my mom really did think he was retarded. The rest I made up. Mostly.

    Lyrics
    I was a stupid boy
    All the doctors called me slow
    I just sat there drooling on my toys
    Little did I know

    Mom thought I was retarded
    Dad just said I was gay
    All the neighbors kept screaming...

    Grew up a happy kid
    In the middle of my yard
    I threw pine cones at the neighbor girl
    She was slow - it wasn't hard

    Mom said I was delinquent
    Dad just said I was gay
    All the neighbors kept screaming...

    "We don't like your kind around here
    Please stay away from our homes
    And when you feel like it's time to come closer
    Don't"

    Now I'm living on my own
    In the middle of this earth
    And I gots to find a woman friend
    'Least a friend, for what it's worth

    My mom thinks I'm a hermit
    Dad still says that I'm gay
    All the neighbors keep screaming...

    "We don't like your kind around here
    Please stay away from our homes
    And when you feel like it's safe to come closer
    Don't"

    I know why I don't live here anymore
    My neighbors kicked my ass

    "We don't like your kind around here
    Please stay away from our homes
    And when you feel like it's safe to come closer
    Don't"
