Who's So Scared Lyrics - Disappear Fear

Once riding in old Baltimore, head filled, heart filled with glee 

I saw a Baltimorean, keep looking straight at me 

I was eight and very small and he was no whit bigger 

And so I smiled but he poked out his tongue and called me a nigger 

I saw the whole of Baltimore 

From May until December 

Of all the things that happened there 

That's all that I remember 

Who's so scared 

Who's so scared 

Who's so scared 

Who's so scared 

When I was fourteen I took a bus to San Francisco 

I was full of hope and joy, till this girl called me a boy 

But I was already on my way so frightened to be gay 

Just like in 1942, the world screaming 

"Something's wrong with you, Jew" 

Who's so scared 

Who's so scared 

Who's so scared 

Who's so scared 

But what I discover 

Lover after lover 

There's nothing wrong with me 

That's just a lie by society 

So I start looking at the world, we have 

And while it's not completely bad 

There's a lot of room for improvement 

People of color and the gay movement 

Who's so scared 

Who's so scared 

Who's so scared 

Who's so scared 

Once riding in old Baltimore, head filled, heart filled with glee 

I saw a Baltimorean, keep looking straight at me 

When I was eight and very small and he was no whit bigger 

And so I smiled but he poked out his tongue and called me a nigger 

I saw the whole of Baltimore 

From May until December 

Of all the things that happened there 

That's all that I remember 

Concerned about my own people 

Won't you explain to me that pain of your life? 

Won't you explain to me that pain of your life? 

Won't you explain to me that pain of your life 

Of your life? 

Of your life
