#309 No Sir! I'm No Fool Follower

I don’t care

If you don’t approve

Of the way I wear my hair

The cut of my jeans

Doesn’t define me

That’s just not what it means

You are shallow

And I'm no fool

I refuse to do what you think is cool

Yet you control me just the same

When I rebel against your standards

I'm reacting

Just not in the way you wanted

If you were smarter than me

And you're not

I'm just saying

You'd secretly rejoice

Even as you deride me

For not wearing the right jeans

Because you are the reason

That I've switched to a kilt

And all my talk of being unique

Is just a bullshit cover story

And an excuse

For simply not being like you
