I shouldn’t have to
tap my feet
to help me
keep in time

I shouldn’t have to
think so hard
to make up
every rhyme

I shouldn’t have to
take a pill
to help me
cope with pain

I shouldn’t have to
ask for hail
to get
a little rain

I shouldn’t have to
apologize
for everything
I do

I shouldn’t have
care for him
to prove
I care for you

I shouldn’t have to
write all this
to get my
message through

I shouldn’t have to
waste my time
when there’s nothing
I owe to you
