All Kinds Of Kinds - Miranda Lambert
Ilsa was an acrobat who
went and fell in love with that
Horatio the human cannonball.
A wedding neath the big top tent with
barkers clowns and elephants
Sideshow family oddities and all.
The dog-faced boy
howled out with joy
As the tattooed lady was crying.
Ever since the beginning
to keep the world spinning
It takes all kinds of kinds.
Thomas was a congressman
with closets full of skeletons
And dresses that
he wore on Friday nights.
Phyllis was a pharmacist a dab
of that a pinch of this
Concocted to suppress her appetite.
When the children were fiddlin
she d slip em some Ritalin
And wait for Thomasina to arrive.
Cause ever since the beginning
to keep the world spinning
It takes all kinds of kinds.
All kinds of kinds.
When I play this old guitar from
children s shows to smoky bars
I take a break and
think about the past.
When I stood up in geometry
and everybody stared at me
And I tossed my test
into the trash.
I scratched off my number
while hitching out under
That bush league population sign.
Ever since the beginning
to keep the world spinning
It takes all kinds of kinds.
Now some point a finger
and let ignorance linger
If they d look in the
mirror they d find.
That ever since the beginning
to keep the world spinning
It takes all kinds of kinds.
All kinds of kinds.
All kinds of kinds.
