To the Kids

It's an important lesson to children, but epically now, a lot of adults might need the bigger picture.

Trucks and dolls are both toys
So it doesn’t matter with which you game
But we all have our preferences
And in that way we are the same

So some will play with trucks
And some will play with dolls
Some will play with both
And some will play with none at all

But if I have learned anything
When ninety-nine is crossed by one
The ninety-nine are just as different-
As those who think like them are none
