131 - Here’s the Thing
You can call me names
I don’t mind if you do
Because nobody hates me
As much as I do
You can say I’m a bit fat
This much is also true
But nobody hates me
Quite as much as I do
You can make fun of me
But join the back of the queue
Cos no one hates me
As much as I do
All of the above
To me, none of it’s new
But here’s the brilliant thing
At least I’m not you
