Ode to Societal Hierarchal Bullshit

I can see the flaws from underneath
Yes, the ones you try to hide
From where you've placed me, i can see up the hiked-up skirt of high society
Beautiful people, you're not beautiful to me
You can give gifts as long as someone else sees
But don't even have time to show me the slightest bit of courtesy

When i hold the door for you, it's not because i'm supposed to, but if you only took a second to figure out the truth, you'd see i'm really doing it to show you the real meaning of being humane

And no, baby I'm not perfect, not by any means,
but i have to do a lot less washing to make myself feel clean.

While we're on the subject of cleanliness, your living space isn't straightened up if u just pick up everything off the floor and throw it in the closet, is it? Its just a displaced mess. Try applying that principle to all sides of life, especially the underside.

Just because u can't see something doesn't mean its not there. It just means you'll be a hell of a lot more surprised when it pops up from where you've been hiding it long after you never thought you'd ever re-find it.

How can this seem ok to you? You care so much about how you look when you go out, but what about when u come back in? I'll be damned if you can even sit five minutes by yourself save for when ur counting the number of calories you took in as they're resurfacing.

You're in college, trying to make a life, right? So how many degrees does it take for you to actually be accomplished? In my opinion, 360. You're gonna be back where you started, whether you're a nurse, a science teacher, or a stripper. The things you've done will always stay with you, no matter which side the good, or the bad, u choose to acknowledge.

My advice? Take each of those sides of yourself, sit them at a table and hold an intervention for your persona. And if one of those sides happens to be a bartender, have him/her serve up a lovely cocktail so things don't get all tense and mushy. Drink of choice? I would go with a guilty conscience.
On the rocks. :)


Yet again, just a (somewhat bitter) observation from your friendly neighborhood philanderer.
