You sometimes tell me I can't love,
Really? Wow. Good to know.
You sometimes tell me I don't want,
Really? Thanks, well now I know.
You sometimes think you know what's right,
And what I'm supposed to do,
Really? Great! I'll really take
The things you're giving me to do.
You sometimes think you have more info
On my life more than yours,
Really? Wonderful. Please do tell
What my life seems to tell.
You know me, and so you always say
You know of all my character,
You somehow think that you could be
The ambassador of my character.
Great, oh grand! What wonderful news,
I've always wanted to be
Told that someone else knows me
More than I know me.
