Jay Som - Why I Say No

Why I Say No -
Back when I was young
I thought it was clever
To stand up like my mama My head up like I mean it
And if I cross my legs Will I be like the others? And if I stand up straight Will I climb, climb, climb? To the top
Where I'm not
That's why I say no
I guess I'm just insane
Yeah I'm told I've got no brain
If I smile I'll be perfect
Then I'll die with purpose
I'll force my smile
I'll fix my hair
Clean up my house
Shut up right now
I'll think about the good I've done
Say "yes" and breathe when I am done
And if I cross my legs Will I be like the others? And if I stand up straight Will I climb, climb, climb? To the top
Where I'm not
That's why I say no
