My Uncle Danny
My uncle is obnoxious
poking fun at me
but he doesn't think they're insults
he just thinks they're really funny
telling me it's my fault
even when it's not
but really it's not his fault
it's this condition that he's got
he doesn't really understand
that what he does is wrong
all cause of an extra chromosome
that he's had all along
it's called down syndrom
and it's nothing to laugh at
because he doesn't know it
he just doesn't get that
so I can't really get upset
when he calls me these names
because honestly he just doesn't get
that I don't want to play his games
