Not Today

Don’t bother me today
I’m in no mood for you
Well, frankly I’m in no mood at all
I’ve got way too much to do

Don’t talk to me today
I’m sure I will throw a fit
Your laugh provokes me more
So full of gregarious spit

Don’t walk with me today
Your arm can’t brush against my own
I’ll walk on the other side of the hall
In my own comfort zone

I’m not mad at you today
But I’m mad at, really everything 
Don’t talk, don’t laugh, don’t bother
And please don’t even try to sing
