Different

clearly hard being different will take a strong flexible spine despite how inconsiderate must obey each and every sign not so easy being odd physically out of tune spat on with words from god vilified inside cartoons existence well defined by prigs and blissful ignorance all must be tight aligned to others’ selfish interests don't step out of line for they are ever watching hate is not benign your hang rope could be notching the masses won't be swayed left with little choice traditions must be obeyed don't dare raise your voice operate on the down low hide true feelings deep inside let very few people know normal's so hard to abide clearly hard being different despite how inconsiderate physically out of tune vilified inside cartoons existence well defined all must be tight aligned don't step out of line hate is not benign the masses won't be swayed traditions must be obeyed hide those true feelings held inside acting normal’s hard to abide
