If I told you you're too chunky, That you need to lose some weight, Would you take my word as gospel?   Mold yourself to fit my taste? If I told you,  wear more makeup Your skin is way too flat, Would you hide your true reflection? Behind a powder ridden mask? If i said your "tastes" are tasteless,   Would you offer up that too? Would you hide your true desires,   And all that makes " you"  you? If I said to join the masses,   To act and look the same,   Would you try the hottest mind ***** Would you treat life as a game? If I told you,  be more willing, Would you lay upon your back? For if you wish to catch a tiger You must offer up a snack Would you follow the suggestions Of a stranger you can't see? Is that not what we're all doing, To fit in with society

What if I told you?
If I told you you're too chunky, That you need to lose some weight, Would you take my word as gospel?   Mold yourself to fit my taste? If I told you,  wear more makeup Your skin is way too flat, Would you hide your true reflection? Behind a powder ridden mask? If i said your "tastes" are tasteless,   Would you offer up that too? Would you hide your true desires,   And all that makes " you"  you? If I said to join the masses,   To act and look the same,   Would you try the hottest mind ***** Would you treat life as a game? If I told you,  be more willing, Would you lay upon your back? For if you wish to catch a tiger You must offer up a snack Would you follow the suggestions Of a stranger you can't see? Is that not what we're all doing, To fit in with society
