One Word Names

by Thoughtless Consideration   Dec 11, 2006


Oh, what a prep;
What a terrible waste of time,
What a terrible waste of breath;
What a hideous waste of mind.
Yeah, wear your hollister, skinny jeans, I don't really care.
I've already given you a label,
So learn to live with it, try to disregard my cruel stares.

Such an emo!
What's her problem?
I don't care if you wear a bow,
I don't give a damn.
Just go cut yourself, okay!
Or go write a poem!
I don't care if your not emo,
It's not like that matters to me.
I've already labeled you,
And you're pretty emo, as far as I can see.

Hey look, he plays sports,
I like him then,
That means there's no way he can be a dork.
He wears a jersey, for God's sake!
How much better can it get?
Forget about personalities-
This one I'm gonna take.

WHOAH! Is that really eyeliner?!
How can it be??
Whose ever heard of wearing make up that isn't bright pink?

Hey look, she's crying now.
Just looking for attention,
That must be it, I know it (somehow.)
NO WAY can she actually have problems,
So I say we ridicule her about her "false" tears.
I mean, it's just us having a little fun, right?
What's so bad about prodding at other people's fears?

Well guess what,
She's a person too.
And believe it or not,
I am also, and shocker:
SO ARE YOU.
But I don't want to waste my time getting to know a person,
I mean what's the point?
Let's just throw some random label on them,
Because chances are her heart's gonna disappoint.

Well, I refuse to be summed up before you talk to me,
Who gives a damn about my label anyways?
I'm a preppy emo,
Let's just roll with that, okay?
What? How can that be?
Both emo AND preppy?
Well let me tell you something,
No one word can sum me up better than this-
I'M JUST ME.
