Oversensitivity

Humanity’s new habit

Let’s all search for new words

That we can find offensive

We’re a bunch of cry babies

 

Sticks and stones may well break my bones

But words these days will really hurt me

Sticks and stones may well break my bones

But words these days will surely kill me

 

Let’s all be offended

By words that other’s use

Let’s give those words more power

Than they ever had before

It’s just easier to complain

 

Chorus

 

It’s your fault and not mine

You can’t say what you said

My fragile ego will be hurt

Learn new words that I like

In the future they’ll be wrong

 

Chorus

 

They have just conned you

With this distraction

PR deception

Their real agenda

Slips by unnoticed

Perfectly blinded

 

Upset by the small things

Big ones slip past you

Their main objective

Discovered eventually

But now it’s too late

Defeated by ego
