Rules & Boundaries
Song written and performed by Clair Lewis now Mx Dennis Queen.
Rules & Boundaries
your rules and boundaries
are inaccessible to me
I will try my best,
but it's hard to do
what I don't 'get'
it just makes no sense to me
just makes no sense to me
all it's achieved is worry in me.
it's really so much easier
when you're including me
til you brought them rules up,
I was set to succeed.
I put on my pretty dress
try to behave my best
no-one was convinced
surrounded by friends
feeling like an alien
where'd ya get
that stupid rule?
where'd ya get
that stupid rule?
don't you realise that's a bit like
asking blind people to see?!
it's really so much easier
when you're including me
til you brought them rules up,
I was set to succeed.
it really would be easier
if you just accepted me
it might be obvious to you
but this is nonsense to me
I couldn't live up to your rules
and I made myself the fool
when I should've had fun
and I could’ve had fun
just like everyone
I cannot be someone else
I cannot be someone else
until I felt unwelcome
I would've been fine
but I was like a stuck record all night.
it's really so much easier
when you're including me
til you brought them rules up,
I was set to succeed.
it really would be easier
if you just accepted me
but you set me up to fail
and then put all the blame on me.
soooooo
I will NOT watch what I say
I will not watch what I say
if you can't handle me
don't fuckin ask me round to play
I'll gladly be out of your way
