"Personality"
Silly things, silly dreams
What else out there
Can be used to differentiate
Between jumping beans and drama queens
Better than your
God-given personality
Mom says she wants me to be a doctor
Dad wants me to work with tools
I’d rather be an entertainer
Or an enforcer of the rules
Mom says that’s crazy
Dad says that’s garbage
But I want to be more than a lazy
Man who settles for average
I want something that’s fun
I want something incredible
I want to write more than one
Name on a hotel bill
I want to be recognized
For superior work I’ve done
I want to be looked at
As commendable rather than
One ordinary son-of-a-gun
