Just because my eyes are uneven
And my teeth are tinged with green
Doesn't mean I'm unattractive
Means my looks are not mainstream
I sometimes babble incoherently
But my words still have importance
Everyone has an opinion to express
Some of us have more discordance
So what if my hair grows out in tuffs
And my nose is crooked and bent
It's what's upstairs that really counts
It's the brains that pay the rent
So when you see a strange looking person
Who's considered a little extreme
Remember we're all in this together
But we're not all a part of mainstream
