I'm Not Normal
I talk too much
And I talk too fast
So you won't talk to me?
I don't go over someone's house daily
I don't have people over daily
So you won't invite me over?
I don't live sports
I don't cheerlead
Does that make you dislike me?
I don't own Hollister
Abercrombie and Fitch or American Eagle
Do my clothes define me different?
I have my own opinion
I say what I want to say
But why do you say nothing to me?
I'm not popular
I don't believe in that word
So why do you judge people by it?
I don't go out with every guy in the school
I don't have a new boyfriend every week
Does that make me boring?
I'm not like you
I'm your total opposite
So to you I'm not perfect?
I care about other people
I know they have feelings
So why not try and talk to me?
I do my homework
I go to school every day
Does that make me a nerd?
I'm my own person,
Not who you want me to be,
Why should I care about what you think of me?
