Get Off My Back

Washing and drying Folding and clothing Scooping and dumping Hustling and bustling. I follow my routine Each tuesday, thursday and friday Getting all the chores done On rare occassion one is saved for tomorrow. Yet, your never satisfied You try to throw off my pattern Adding new things that don't swing While you make empty threats That I ain't buying. You may bark all you want, But you don't got the bite Even when you put on a mean face Trying to make everyone bow before you Just because you think your the boss. Then you tell me "Wait until you land a job" "Just see how hard that'll be" That's only your opinion Because your work is full of idiots. So don't push your beliefs on me You may be experienced Yet when it comes to jobs You don't understand That all jobs differ. I'm doing my best Just like the rest To find work out there That's right for me. As long as I'm happy Relating to my field Suiting to my skills An environment that's just right Then I've found the ideal job. I love to relax and have fun, Pausing the fun button To get the job done Then get back to bliss. I know the time Check off the chores On the list in my mind I get it all done. Helping you out Groceries and tasks I get them done Multitasking everything To balance work and pleasure. You see negatives in life While I see positives Think I don't use my head I use it more than you know. You see the grass as gray I see the grass as greener You see the glass as half empty I see the glass as half full. I Rapunzel, You Gothel Your wrong about me, Your wrong about people, Your wrong about jobs. Learn to loosen up, Accept the things in life, Be more appreciative of the people That surround you that care. Smash your negativity With the hammer of positivity Because I won't put up with it So just get off my back.
