Fit in the Pocket

They say fit in the pocket
But your pockets are small and I don’t fit in
They say run with the herd
But they always go right and I like left turns
They say keep your opinions to yourself
They leave no room to be yourself
And don’t draw outside the lines
Or so they say
They say the grass is greener
When you’re standing on the other side
I think the grass I’m standing on feels fine
There’s flowers amidst the weeds
But only where you plant the seeds
The rules I’ve been told but I won’t play
They say fit in the mold
But the mold is too tight they don’t have my size
They say keep the boat still
But making waves is all part of the thrill
They say just play the game
But in the end we all win the same
And don’t stand out
Or so they say
They say the grass is greener
When you’re standing on the other side
I think the grass I’m standing on feels fine
There’s flowers amidst the weeds
But only where you plant the seeds
The rules I’ve been told but I won’t play
They say fit in the crowd
But with so many voices they aren’t loud
'Cause don’t speak your mind ohh
But isn’t that why I have my own
Isn’t that why I have my own
Why keep your opinions to yourself
Why try to be any one else
The rules I’ve been told but I won’t play
The rules I’ve been told but I won’t play
