You Too?
They thought I was way too much
maybe thought too much.
Definitely too tall and
too smart for my own good.
Taking insults too personally…
too you know all over the place.
Later I became too fat, too self
absorbed, too much of a brooder.
But then again I tried too hard.
Always too much of a mix-up. To tell
the truth can’t remember too much.
If you’re that way too
that would make two of us.
