Like a Child

(fact)

Like a child, desperate for attention
You scream and yell
No one can't hear you
Like a child desperate for attention
You stump your feet
And she'd you tears
No one still can't hear you
Like a child desperate for attention
You run around in circles to see if they see
But told to go sit down and wait your turn for affection
Like a child desperate for attention
You created chaos to see if they noticed 
You get a time out for the damages you caused.
Was it worth it?
Like a child desperate for attention 
Your doings is unnecessary for you just making things worse.
