Metamorphosis

When I was hurled,
Into this fucking world

I came face to face,
With the ugly human race

But then I grew up,
No longer the stupid pup

The energy of the youth,
Brash and uncouth
Ready to go anywhere
And punch out a tooth

The time was a bitch,
Hatred everywhere

Everybody was nobody
And nobody cared

I thought I’d change it all,
Determined to stand tall

But then I met temptation
And overcame all hesitation

And became an animal like them
