Ode to a Mistake

[clarinetnazi]

I don't appreciate your tone
Your catty, patronizing tone
This is why I've driven home
Because you don't leave me alone

I do not like the things you say
Those bitchy little things you say
That's why I went home yesterday
I can't get far enough away

I hate it when you talk to me
Can't stand it when you talk to me
That's why I felt I had to flee
Stop treating me like I am three

And guess what! I'm a person too!
A happy, loving person, too
That's why I drove away from you
That's something that you never knew

Can't stand it when you move my stuff
If you can, I can leave my stuff
That's why I left you in a huff
My things and I have had enough

And I try to be nice to you!
I fight hard to be nice to you
I drove through ice and water too
Because I feared what I might do

When I need a little help
Just a tiny bit of help
You won't give any of yourself
You patronize and sit and swell

I pushed it off the edge, I did
But it fell in, and so it hid
I let it stay there, like a kid
I'm not responsible for it

So yes, I did it; now you know
In anger and frustration both
To let you feel it too, although
That wasn't why I had to go

I have courage, believe or not
And anger with a fire hot
I'm not afraid of what you've got
But don't call me black when you're the pot!
