Sorry I’m not perfect
Or fit your status-quo.
You know that I am trying
But your words are just a blow.
“You have to do better.”
“You aren’t trying your best.”
Why are you saying this?
I’m better than the rest.
Do you see what I do?
What things I have done?
With praise and congrats
I’d’ve thought you’d been one.
Punish me then
If I’m not doing my job
Oh, such a disappointment I am
Why not call out the mob?!
Ok, please don’t.
I’m trying to be good.
I thought you’d be happy.
I really thought you would.
