Jeans? Please?
I feel kind of shallow
 as though I’ve hit a rock
 and I’ll
 tantrum
 and tantrum
 until I’ll get the thing I want
 I want those jeans so bad man
 I need those jeans so bad man
 I need them to be accepted
 I want them because everyone else wants them
 but I don’t want to ask my mother.
 I feel bad.
 a quality most children don’t posses
 and even taking my allowance.
 it just kind of rips something.
 maybe thats why i don’t work properly.
 I know.
 Maybe..
 If I’ll work real hard
 if I show her I try
 and I will
 If I study math
 an hour a day
 a skill
 she doesn’t think I can test
 and if I play piano for an hour straight
 let the music
 soak into her
 dropping the tenseness fast
 then maybe
 just maybe...
 I’ll deserve those jeans at last.
