Why Can't We Be Friends?

by Dark Angel - Pisces

Long, silky, non frizz hair
Big brand name clothes
Tans from the bed
Why can't we be friends?

Black clothes everyday
Skin that never sees the sun
Dark lipstick to tie it all in
Why can't we be friends?

Baggy jeans with bandannas
Clubs topped off by rap music
Spoofed up cars with base speakers
Why can't we be friends?

Skateboarding for your spare time
A different color for your hair everyday
Music by people of the unknown
Why can't we be friends?

You wear your leather jacket to school everyday
Top that off with your chaps and fingerless gloves
Give your phone number to any girl you find attractive
Why can't we be friends?

You're clothes are raggedy
Your hair is always matted to your head
You have no friends, you do everything alone
Why can't we be friends?

Practice after school everyday
Popular for your name
Throw all of the after game beer parties
Why can't we be friends?

Put into categories by our peers
Not being accepted one of our greatest fears
Afraid to make a mistake, don't want to make the wrong turn
Afraid to step out of society, something we need to learn.
