Too Disproportional for You

I’m too short

 

No I’m too tall

 

My nose is too wide

 

My eyes are too small

 

My cheekbones are too high

 

My lips are too thin

 

Yet it’s not about looks

 

It’s what’s within?

 

Well I don’t believe that

 

I’m not stupid

 

If I looked differently

 

I wouldn’t need Cupid

 

Alas you only can realize

 

That I look remotely cute

 

Is right before I dive

 

In my swimsuit

 

But even then

 

You want it all

 

And my forehead’s much too high

 

And my eyes too small
