In diesem Song geht es um jemanden, dessen Bruder an Trisomie 21 (auch bekannt als Down Syndrom) leidet, der ihn nichtsdestoweniger liebt und beschützt, vor der Ablehnung anderer und vor dem manchmal herablassenden Mitleid.

Behind your back
They gaze at you
As they always do
You look so strange
With your almond eyes
And childlike face
Doesn’t bother me
Cause you’re my brother
I will care for you
All my life
You are no brainiac
Simple-minded
But not insane
You are no fool
Learned to read and write
In a special school
I am proud of you
Little brother
I will care for you
All my life
Sometimes I marvel how cordial you are
Sometimes I wonder how innocent you are
Falsehood or even slyness you’re not familiar with
Your smile makes me smile and we share the bliss
Some people say that it probably would
Have been better if you hadn’t been born at all
But they are wrong ‘cause you’re precious and strong and
I’m glad you have survived and that you enrich my life
Come, let’s have a blast
Let us paint the town red
Let us watch the girls
The red-haired and the brunette
This will be the night you will get to know your bride – so come on –
Don’t be shy, you are strong
She scoffed at you
She felt no shame
I am to blame
Oh don’t be sad
There will be sunny
Days again
I’m so sorry
Little brother
Failed to protect you
In this night
Sometimes I forget how vulnerable you are
Sometimes I forget how cruel people are
They don’t see a human being - they just see a freak - yeah
Because you are different they feel uneasy near you
Sometimes I marvel how open-minded you are
Sometimes I wonder how innocent you are
Falsehood or even slyness you’re not familiar with
Your smile makes me smile and we share the bliss
Some people say that it probably would
Have been better if you hadn’t been born at all
But they are wrong ‘cause you’re precious and strong and
I’m glad you have survived and that you enrich my life
They gaze at you
As they always do
You look so strange
With your almond eyes
And childlike face
Doesn’t bother me
Cause you’re my brother
I will care for you
All my life
You are no brainiac
Simple-minded
But not insane
You are no fool
Learned to read and write
