As If I Read You Mind

by iloveanimecartoons

Original (Um…forgot the date…sometime in 1998)

Revision February 23, 2008

If I could read your mind, you'd be in trouble

I could feel the ignorance churning in your soul

Chastening eyes so alive with dismay—damn

Can't you see the predicament you put me in?

To sit here, at eyes view, and feel you look me over

Not like a person stuck in a glance or a so-called Casanova

Like a person awestruck, stereotypical, prejudging

More like you stare to say “Move out me way!”…listen, I'm not budging

What?! You thought this was really just your world?

Well, it's not my fault you're so disgusted

But, please show me some respect or get you bubble busted

Um…burst? Whatev…

My first instincts are always the first to be trusted

Watch your mouth and your thoughts; as I've often said:

“You can't waste your precious energy trying to fit in with those who think immaturely.”

It's almost as if I've read your mind—what a jip!

It didn't take long to read a mind so limited and so full of shit
