“A person’s a person, no matter how small.”*
A person’s a person, no matter how tall.
Whether a he or a she or a me or a we,
Whether virgin or straight or an LGBT,
A person’s a person. And that is all.
No matter the race, no matter the age,
Matters not if they are foolish or if they are sage,
I don’t care what color their skin or their clothes,
The size of their body or the shape of their nose.
I don’t care if they like elephants or if they like donkeys,
If they prefer hawks or doves, or bees, or monkeys,
There’s only one thing that matters to me
A person’s a person. And that is all.
A person’s a person whether loser or winner.
A person’s a person whether a saint or a sinner.
No matter what they’ve done, what they can or can’t do.
A person’s a person, whether a me or a you.
A person’s a person no matter their power.
A person’s a person whether sweet or they’re sour,
Whether neighbor or stranger, a friend or a foe,
A person’s a person where-ever you go.
Whether it’s you or it’s me, whether it’s “them” or it’s “us”
Remember one thing, remember we must:
A person’s a person; let everyone live
No matter their ___, (anything)! Just let each one live.
