rantz

Listen to me
why won't you listen to me?
if i banged my fist on the table
it would send the wine a-sprayin
tell me, would that get your attention?
if i stood up and started shouting
but you and i both know it's not in me
to do things so very indiscreetly
rather, i sit there staring downward
hoping things will just come natural
like some sort of magic fairy
will grant you the ability
to listen
please, just listen to me
