Absent Minded

schoolyard bully politics

You have a big stick you like to use
you push me around for humour and your abuse
And you know i will say I'm not going to be like you
And you know i will want to be rescued from you.
The nice guy a55hole guise, and you think overcharging me for everything is my favor
The two faced saving face headache,
and when you meet your match you expect a favor
Life of the popularity contest versus
the most enemies hall of fame
why bother trying anymore?
I'm the popular geek
throwing myself at your feet

Why should I be the bigger man?
If I'm not are you going to kick my a55?
Why should i go out of my way for your aid?
So you can cover it up and the future never gets repaid?
Why should i comfort you or nurse your wounds
I can't afford the supplies or psychological bill.
And I don't say anything false or cruel behind your back,
take your thought process ona test run,
I hope to hell someone helps youi through your problems
and when they do, i hope that you
won't kill yourself.

You seeem to have lost your stick
and now i seem to be the bad guy
Not good at reasoning anything
only good at arguing
Not good at being practical, sensible, or logical
too busy sacrificing the greater good
to hog the philosophical ball
and make your momenatry and forgotten claim to fame.
Why bother changing the world for the better?
No one will listen and if they do
I get absolutely no credit.
