So What

In school there was this guy named Terry and he was always getting body art Everybody was talking about it and jealous and wanted to look like his body parts they said "Isn't he cool, watch the girls look at him and drool" he's so buffed and so good looking and they think he's so cool wonder why he looks like that and nobody else does he seems like a loner, he just hangs out with girls with his peach fuzz They say he has a brother, wonder what he looks like I've only heard that he's bigger and get's him into a fight Whose idea is this body art anyway? without knowing the family I can't really say So he started talking with the kid so he could stay after school and later go home with him maybe come in early and workout the gym so I went to his house and his brother was the same way They had sleeves of body art, they were nice They were not scary or different, they were right so I was thinking like "What's the big deal" so they're different so can't we get real He's nice man and he won't hurt you He's got a great brother and he's cool too If people just got him from the start They wouldn't be so afraid like after the dark So I'm the only one that knows for sure that he's so innocent, he's just different there's no cure needed for this guy, he won't hurt you or bite if you just talk to him like a person you just might figure it out and not be mad at him without giving him a chance or a shout you'd be friends with him too no doubt you'll realize there was "no big deal" just because they thought of it for real Hold your horses down don't be a clown you can have nerves of steel cause it's no big deal
