Hey!
Hey who?
Hey you?
But I have a name.
And nowhere on my birth certificate is that word.
So don't act offended.
If you go unheard.

Hey you?
Hey who?
You can't be speaking to me.
Because I'm not a question mark.
I have a name.
Just like I have a heart.

I wouldn't call you, hey fool.
Altho' I might want too.
But that would be cruel.
Let alone to some rude.

Hey?
Hey you.
Yes, It's me talking to you.
Now you want to address me.
In ways you prefer to be call.

Because you feel the insult.
Now you know the way I feel.
Calling  me by my name is a big deal.
